One trouble with counting large numbers of rests is you start questioning yourself along the way: "did I already do 39?"
An acquaintance's first job after college was with an orchestra as "3rd clarinet and auxiliary percussion". In one piece he played the triangle. He had over a hundred bars of rest, followed by a single note, a solo.
At the performance, he counted with maniacal intensity, eyes on the conductor, ears carefully attuned. He counted right. As the solo approached, he raised the triangle, timed the conductor's cue perfectly, swung the little mallet - and missed the triangle completely. The conductor gave him a look.
