It really would.
I like seeing Morris Dancing at fates (spelling? I'm sure there should be an accent somewhere, or possibly an i). Admitiedly I wouldn't want to be friends with someone who considered it a good hobby, but I'm glad it exists.

The last time I saw morris dancing was at a country fair,
where they also had a piano smashing contest and steam rollers. Brilliant.

It is slowly dying out
Although there may just be enough people who would miss it to try to keep it alive. The problem being that you probably wouldn't care enough/be unselfconscious enough until you are much older, by which time the current practitioners will have died out and you'll be learning it from books rather than practice.

I didn't know kids were allowed to morris dance.
Possible health and safety consequences.
