Morris Dancing.

I recently saw an outdoor practice exhibition of the ancient art of Morris Dancing. And I have one question to post at you, dear reader. What is is about Morris Dancing that causes at least one barefoot Morris Dancer to abandon her practice mid-frolic and begin running madly in the street, chasing cars and bicyclists? All this while wearing kneepads with bells on them.

Maybe they stepped on a tack or something?? I read the very interesting history of Morris Dancing, but I didn't see anything that alluded to running madly in the streets.
