Of course we also vocalize the color, but the redundancy confirms it for the table.
Some "table officials" have expressed their appreciation of that, for the sake of the clarity of it all.
Anybody else doing this?

I only know of one person in our whole chapter who does that, and that's not the only thing he does uniquely compared to others in our chapter. I'm pretty sure doing that is frowned upon in our chapter.
Didn't your mother ever tell you it's not nice to point at people?
