I have, this one time durring practice, it was just as we were about to finish the show, and I was going backwards. Well, I couldn't see what was going on behind me, and our whole intire line behind me fell over, and then it was my turn biggrin

My friend Alec marches tuba, and his freshman year, he fell over and completely rolled. Tuba and all. On wet grass.
...
During a marching show XD
Our late band director took it in great humor

I didn't really fall, I just kind of fainted half way up a hill during a parade and started rolling...Not fun, especially when you're carrying tenors and the huge fire trucks are right behind you. I don't know what they expect when they put you in full uniform when it's over 100 degrees outside... sweatdrop

Yeah... xd I liked that bloody band-aid, though. Think I should fall so I can get one? =D

Julie and I were worried, though. We were like, "WHERE DID RACHAEL GO? SHE POOFED! AAHHHH!" But then I saw Ms. Hopkins bandaging up your knee when we started marching. xd

Yeah the director decided to have the flutes and clarinets run across the field in this weird multi meter step and we had the pit on the field so we could go in front of the side line, but there were yard line markers and I fell going backwards, but luckily it was squishy and I bounced right back up and now this guy calls me "trampoline butt." Apparently it was a pretty amazing recover, but I was so out of it.

I think I'm one of the few in my band who has never hit the pavement (or grass). I've been kicked and stepped all over numerous time, though.

While in the bleaches one year, another girl bumped into the bottom of my clarinet while she was dancing to stand tunes. I ended up with a painful clarinet mouthpiece stab wound at the top of my mouth and a bloody reed. Fun, huh? ;3

I also came very close to passing out on one of my first days of band camp as a freshman. xD Why didn't they tell me I shouldn't lock my knees earlier? sweatdrop
