Update Since I posted this it has been removed from YouTube. So sorry! I’m not sure why they removed it, but so it goes. Here is another version:

This is just too funny (and hat tip to Lynn Moquette for sending it my way):
A 911 caller told police a man was sitting on his car with a weapon, but he was just playing the bassoon.
This summer, bassoonist Eric Barga drove to Covenant Presbyterian Church in Springfield, Ohio, after a day of teaching at his old school, Kenton Ride High School.
Eric was half an hour early for bell choir practice. To pass the time, he pulled out his custom-made Fox 610 red maple bassoon, sat down on the boot of his car and started playing some scales.
Most importantly, though: the police need music lessons so they can tell the difference between the oboe and bassoon!
