Flagmania takes over the Sleaze Ball 2006 Podiums!

Once again Flagmania dived in to a new experience in podium dancing for our cities Sleaze Ball Party 2006. We really had a great time dressing up in our own ideas of fantasy and making and performing with our bright white fluorescent flags! We performed on stage, and also on 4 other podiums around the venue for about 5 x 20min sets. Lots of fun, pics and positive feedback! We hope we made people feel excited and happy at this event!
However, silly me got a bit distracted by the intensity of the moment, and forgetting to pay attention to the bounds of the 1m high podium box, unexpectedly slipped off in a flurry of flags, hitting the ground with cracking great force onto my left foot in a screaming heap on the floor!! Eventually laughing embarrassingly amidst the throng that ran to my rescue, I had to get assisted to the first aid room for bandaging a suspected damaged or broken ankle/foot/leg! Next I was whisked off to the Adelaide Hospital by a very generous Wayne (thanks Wayne!), with my concerned partner Troy in tow, only to wait for hours in Emergency to be told that under the massive swelling I had damaged tendons amidst some scrapes and bruises (and slightly bruised ego) and that I would need annoying crutches for 2 weeks at least! Drama drama! Ah the life of the flagger! These things happen I suppose!
