You shout them out, the crowd yells back the last names. Simple, right? Then you pull someone up on stage, and somehow, against all logic, they pick the card you predicted. Can't quite explain why it works like a charm, but it does. Bill Abbott's a fan, and maybe you will be too, once you get past the initial \"surely not\" moment.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis version's got a few extras. You get a set of 4x6 inch index cards with the names already on them, saving you from handwriting that never quite looks right. There're also a couple of new celebrity reveals, a pop-up hamper for the card toss, and a sturdy black envelope to keep everything from ending up all over the place.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eHere's how it plays out:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eStart by testing how well your audience knows their celebs. You say \"Paris,\" they say \"Hilton,\" and so on, it's like a weird pub quiz round. Then you get someone who fancies themselves a celeb genius to help out. They sit on the prediction envelope, for suspense or discomfort, and begin sorting through the cards, tossing half into the hamper every now and then. Eventually, they end up with one card: let's say Taylor (Swift).\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eNow, the twist: in the envelope they've been warming is a baby photo of Taylor Swift. Yep, that's the kicker. Everyone has a giggle, you flip it over, and there's a grown-up shot of her. Somehow, it never fails to get a good reaction.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eHere's what you need to remember:\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt works wherever, whether you're up close or in front of a big crowd; no odd angles to mess with.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick reset, so you're not faffing about between shows.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo sneaky moves, just a straightforward, solid routine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you're feeling particularly rebellious, you could perform it sans clothes.
