Cellos on the Floor

My orchestra performed its annual Christmas concert last night. More on that later. Here is a photo of cellos resting during one of the rehearsals. I would never set my horn on the stage floor and walk away, but I suppose cellos are large enough that no one would walk on them.

I'm with you, but I suppose they are just too big to take to the loo?
