It was actually 987 that did that as 190 waited with the ramp ready to go. As both teams seemed very ramp cautious with ramps deployed well in advance of the 15 second end, 987 put the tube they had on the ramp without penalty. I don't know if they had planned that beforehand, or came up with it on the spot, but it looked really cool on the webcast. Wish I could have been there to see it in person.
