No. 23. Dartboard Prediction
A good stunt that you can pull in a pub or social club is to predict the
total score made by someone who throws three darts at the board. To add
to the fun of the effect, the last dart should be thrown with the spectator
having his eyes closed—which also proves he is not a stooge.
No. 24. Matches or Cigarettes
Another stunt for close up work or table work is to predict the number
of matches or cigarettes in a box taken by a spectator from his pocket and
put on the table. With these close up quick effects, you need not resort to
window envelopes or any complicated technique. Simply forecast the total
on the card and have the result declared and fill it in as you hand the card
to be checked by another spectator. It is also a good thing to keep the
prediction as brief as possible—make it of five to six words—straightforward.
like : YOU WILL SELECT THE . . . . OF . . . . for a card trick, or T H E
TOTAL WILL BE . . . . IN THE BOX for matches.
