When don't I fall? Haha, I'm probably the biggest klutz around. I fell during our run-on thing before pre-game due to the grass being wet. Luckily it was only practice. That day someone's shoe got caught in the mud, and what do you know? A bass drum player tripped on it. I also fell after running into my section leader. I kinda ran past her and tripped over her feat redface .
And I cannot even count the number of times I fell during winterguard. At first, people cared. After a few times I think they would have gone so far as to walk right over me... xp

While marching into the Away field, I tripped in a chuck-hole.. xd
Then I fell off the bleachers during a pep rally. It hurt like hell, but everyone in the gym thought it was funny. razz

I haven't fallen, but one of my friends has. The whole piccolo section was marching backwards, and the girl behind her hadn't been there the whole week, so she had no idea where she was going. Anyways, she stopped all of a sudden, any my friend tripped over her. That's not all. The girl in front of her kept going, and knocked my friend over. My friend then landed weird on her wrist and fractured it in like three places.

I haven't fallen...yet. It was our homecoming game, and it had been raining all day, and the field was all muddy from the game. I had to start right on this huge mud area. We could not get our uniforms dirty at all. During this huge dance section, we were marching backwards and my foot got caught in the whole ruining my shoes.

Three times. gonk
First time was within the first 5 minutes of my very first day of marching practice. They had us run around the field as part of our warm up and I fell and skinned my knee. The DMs had to take me inside and find a big band aid. xD
The second time was when we were practicing a block drill. We were back marching and I didn't realize there was a pole behind me... stressed
The third time was when we were practicing our show. SOMEHOW, I got stuck jazz running backwards two yardlines in ten counts, THROUGH the drumline. I'm serious, I asked my section leaders if my coordinate sheet was right, and they said it was... anyway. I.... might have run into a snare drummer and taken us both out. D:

I haven't yet...I'm surprised that I haven't. I had a 16-count jazz run to a set and then immediately march backwards. Going and 160 bpm, I'm just happy for having good posture! sweatdrop

There's a lot of times that people have fallen durring band. Like the one time, tony ran into a bass drum and fell over, and it was durring a show, so we had to just march over him the rest of the time. LOL And the time when I was late for Marching practice, and I ran down the really steep hill to the practice feild, and tripped like halfway down and ended up rolling down the rest of it. My BD laughed at me because I had to make sure my flute was ok before I got up.

we had a kid trip and faceplant in the mud while wearing his sousaphone during practice once. Good times..
Anyway, the only time I've ever fallen was after a pep assembly. I was jumping down from seat to seat instead of taking the stairs (never a good idea with a sousaphone on) I slipped on one of the seats and landed on my butt.

I fell backwards in practice once... A 16-count hold with a low-C longtone x_x When we stepped off again, I tripped over my pants and fell backwards! Luckily my Tenor sax wasn't dented /too/ badly, but everyone was laughing so hard that the drum major had to cut off the song xD

Okay, so two years ago we were going onto the field for a competition and there was this one trash can on the fifty yard line just off the field. With all the bands going in before us the trash can got moved. We marched onto the fifty yard line and fell into this deep hole that the trash can had been covering. The funny part was that half the band fell into it (me included) before we understood that we had to go around the hole and not through it.
Then there was this time last year during one of our band practices, we had this one break so that the BD could go over a set with the brass section. I was talking to one of the flag girls. She was showing me that she broke her watch with the pole of her flag. At that moment the BD blew her whistle and without warning started going over the set with the whole band. In my haste to catch up to where they were in the right slide they were going over I tripped over my pants and fell on my back. It was wet from the recent rain so my clarinet got dried grass all over it and my pants got really wet. I was just happy that one seemed to notice, except for the color guard girl I was talking to.

Only during two different rehearsals. I tripped over the very uneven, dry grass of doom. D:
