JabbaWockeeZ, a 10-man dance group made famous by appearances on "America's Got Talent" and "America's Best Dance Crew," will perform at this year's Gator Growl, organizers announced Tuesday.
The group will be paid $20,000, said Matt Sloan, Gator Growl producer.
The group became famous after it appeared on the first season of "America's Got Talent" in 2007. The following year, it won the first season of "America's Best Dance Crew."
JabbaWockeeZ will join comedian Dana Carvey and musical act O.A.R.
Sloan said the show is looking to hire a host for the event and is negotiating with a former star athlete, but he wouldn't say whom.
The announcement should be made in a week or two, he said.
"I feel like we've got something for everybody," he said. "There should be no reason that any Gators don't want to come to Gator Growl."
The event is Oct. 16. Students, faculty and staff tickets are $15, and general admission tickets are $25.
