WARNING:

So we finally arrive back in the band room after performing at the middle school assembly and Katherine, Caitlin and I are standing by the instrument lockers talking. Mr. Gillette is sitting on a chair on the opposite side of the room and Brandon--the drum major--walks past us on his way out the door.

It just so happens that as Brandon is walking by, the one of the fold-up riser--that is standing vertically next to the lockers--starts to lean and look like they are about to squish Brandon like a slinky.

Caitlin and Gillette both scream his name, he turns to face Gillette, and Caitlin moves to catch the riser. The riser land on the top of Brandon's head and when he pushes it off, Caitlin loses her hold and it lands on her toes.

"Ouch--my toes." is all that is said. Gillette, Katherine and I start laughing.

Brandon then rights the riser and comes eye to eye with the warning label that says something like "Do not store risers vertically. May cause damage or serious injury."

How ironic?? hehe

Bug thinks it would make the situation even funnier if Brandon were to come to school on Monday with a concussion...plus she thinks she broke her toes (:
