I've dropped a drumstick down friend's tuba by accident and we couldn't get it out!
And somebody sat inside the tympani when they were replacing the top! it was funny.

Hold a flute between your legs and go over to a guy and say "Oh yeah.. I'm SO much bigger than you."

finger the lowest note on a bassoon and have someone blow in the wrong side. Really funny sounds... good times. Oh, and you know those fun pictures they take after the "serious" ones? Turn your tuba upside down over someone's head.

in 7th grade i played the bass clarinet, and i always liked to sit on the case while it stood straight up, and well one day i fell off of it.... and i landed on the case, and i didn't learn and did it again but that time someone caught me^_^. then in 8th grade an alto sax was wearing his neckstrap and it got stuck to a shelf and he sorta just hung there for awhile till someone decided to help him ^_^. also in 8th grade we had a rolling stand and everyone had fun climbing and sitting on it pushing each other around and hurting ourselves. in my tenor section we like to pretend we're flutes... and when out bd says instruments up we always put them up like flutes ^_^; and last year at band camp the tenors(cuz we rule) got the spirit stick first i slept with it! it was a one night stand crying later i found out one of the drummers took a shower with it. oh! the tenor section also likes to making moaning noises into out mouthpieces when it gets quiet. my friend plays the flute and he loves going around with his flute case and threatening people that he will kill them with it, and i go get my berry sax case and chase him around with it, a handy weapon, also about those berry cases, if you never want to carry them, they make good vehicles! alright there are a few, i know there is more i'll post then.

Well, we all call the bassoon the Grenade Launcher.
We name our instruments... My tenor is Nora, my clarinet is Clarissa, and my friend's baritone saxophone is Robb.
One day, when they were playing one of the lower saxophones, a reed case went flying out.
Another day, during band, our conductor said we should set a good example for those in the younger grades, as they were going to come join us to play for the award ceremony. Instantly, Drew, the bass clarinetist and I, began discussing ways to hurt people with our instruments. My clarinet would be a bat, and he'd use the mouth and neck of the bass clarinet as a reaper.
After band every day, everyone is walking around. The teacher is always telling us to find a seat. Usually, I'm already seated, but when I have my clarinet out, I'd point out to another chair and say, "Oh, look, a seat!" Then I'd use my clarinet as a paddle.
In summer music, we've had some... different things happening with isntruments. This saxophone player and a floutist were running around the band room, the saxophone player holding one of the parts of the flute. I was sitting on the floor, unpacking my instrument, and he dropped the flute piece in between my knees. The floutist just ran up after him and took it. Another thing that happened was the baritone player kept putting the mouthpiece of my tenor in my mouth, and someone took a picture from behind. Let's just say, it wasn't a pretty picture.
And, of course, to shut us up, the band director says he'll either shove the bell of our clarinet up our nose (lessons), or shove the baton up our nose (band).

Oh, yeah, and, after saxophone lessons I always toss my books, folders, and my tenor into the case and kicked it, while it's open, into the band room. People give me weird glances, but it's still tons of fun.

I've posted here before, but this just occured to me...
During football games when we're in the stands, during the long periods of time when the football players "need their concentration," sometimes the lowbrass with press their bells to each other's back and play... it's a really great back massage.
The trombonist (whom we always call "tromboners") still always hold their horns in the air with the slide extended when we're practicing outside and all of a sudden a thunderstorm happens.

Put your mouth to a tuba like you're going to play it, but instead of buzzing your lips, roll your tongue and make a high pitched sound. The response I got was "Invasion! Duck and cover!!!!"
