We were state high school marching band champions and it was
homecoming and it was halftime. The huge
crowd watched as we marched in a single line until mid-field where every fifth
person would turn one-by-one in the opposite direction forming long diagonal
lines. Everyone missed it except one,
and he was believed the fool.

In my experience, yeah it's an unforgivable sin to be right when everyone else is wrong.
dolp! i feel for him...got it right and still got it so wrong...
ReplyDeleteYeah, the poor boy was left hanging in the middle of the field all by himself.
DeleteReminds me of being in boot camp when the guide on marched us into a wall. That was one not happy company commander or company---especially as 3/4 of them were in the marching band.
ReplyDeleteThe drill sergeant used to get after me for not knowing how to march even though I had spent six years in a marching band. I finally figured out that if I just walked everything would be fine.
Deletewhen my husband was in basic training, there were a few that could never figure out which was right and which was left in time so they put a rock in their right hand..so when they heard right hup, they turned to the direction where the rock was.
ReplyDeleteI carried my rocks in my head.
DeleteWhich is why I choose to play the piano....no one expected you to march and carry a piano. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
there's always the triangle!
DeleteThis reminds me of the time I merged onto the freeway, and EVERY car was going the wrong way except me. And on top of all that, they all started honking at me. I thought to myself "Damn, what is WRONG with these people?"
ReplyDeleteIt's all a matter of perspective after all. Bunch of dumb asses.
