Hello stagers,
Scott Starkey is the President of our magicians ring.
He dubs himself as The Wizard Of The Wabash.
He is a Wizard indeed.
Scott can preform the oldest magic trick ever recorded better than anyone I know.
The Cups And Balls Trick.
I myself have preformed it hundreds of times, and have seen it done many more than that.
Scott can produce a Soccer Ball ⚽ Yes a Soccer Ball from a ordinary 8 ounce metal drinking cup.
He has shown me how he does it, even in slow motion. I know when he is going to do it and I know how, and darned it I miss it every time.
I stated that the Cups And Balls is the oldest magic trick ever recorded.
Your trivia question for today. In what year was the first recorded mention of the Cups And Balls?

Congratulations alwjohnson,
You too are a wizard 🧙♂️
Yes stagers the cups and balls has been around since approximately 2700 to 2500 B.C. Some even think as early as 3000 B.C.
Another device that we use is called a Lota Bowl.
Several drinks can be poured from a seemingly empty earn.
I had lots of fun with this one at college parties.
AJ I saw your reference to the IBM ( International Brotherhood of Magicians), are you also a Prestodidgater?

Also known as Mr. Mud Head.

Ok, the first thing that came to mind was the movie, "My Cousin Vinny" . LOL
Joe/Vinny telling them how each trick was done as he watched the magician do his "tricks".
It is well worth watching again. Good Laughs.

The scene going through my mind is where he asked his girlfriend Lisa if his pants looked good for hunting.
