You know Chubby Checker as the popularizer of “The Twist,” but do you know he also sang and danced about “The Hucklebuck,” “The Pony, “”The Fly,” “Slow Twisting” and “Limbo Rock”?

His constant gyrations caused a prankster to add this made-up title to the list of hit records on Checker’s Wikipedia site: “You Stopped Twisting. Why?”

Chubby Checker comes on, baby, and does the Twist, Saturday, Dec. 26, at the Wolf Den, in the Mohegan Sun casino complex, 1 Mohegan Sun Blvd., Uncasville, all for free. Information: mohegansun.com
