Have you ever done a ripple in any of your shows? If so, what did you do?

At the end of Mercury, we're in this big Nike Swoopish thing. Starting with the first alto sax, when it gets to us, we turn to the right and face backfield. The ripple happens for 17 counts. While we're turning, the pit's doing this funky little thing. On 18, there's a *Ding* on the triangle, and we all snap back around. The color guard's inside the swoop and does the ripple too. The color guard captain, who's at the end, throws her saber up and catches on the ding. It's pretty awesome.
