I don't think of those as novelty - but more dances with unique or seldom used figures

A couple that come to mind without digging too deep

Gold Star Wednesday - by Dale Wilson - has a square dance figure that I have not seen in any other contra

Deep Well by Kathy Anderson - unique way to get into a star

Down by the Riverside - Melony Axle Lute - fun 3 face 3

A Valentine Surprise - Eric Hoffman - recently posted on this group - has large set prominade

Subject: [Callers] Novelty & Gimmick Contras

Here I am with another question.  I learn so much from these threads.

What are some easy, but good, novelty, or gimmick contras.  To elaborate, I mean contras that have unusual moves, or contras that use basic moves in unusual ways.

Maybe Ovals, Wholeset Promenades, Old-Timey square dance moves?

Two of my favorites are "Hot Buttered Rolls" and "Roll Over Johannes"
