The Shrinking Floutest

It was my 2nd concert in school concert band, g7, and I was moving onto the stage so we could get into our position. now I'm a big guy, weighing about 200 at that time, so when i sat down, the folding chairs schools use started to buckle and sink under me. The performance was delayed as a new chair was found for me..
