You place two shot glasses touching next to each other and place an egg in one of the glasses.

The Bet is that you can make the egg change shot glasses without touching the egg or the shot glasses.

Secret is that you blow really hard and close to the outside of the egg and the egg will travel to
the other glass.

I am a 3rd generation bartender so I know a few bar trick.

I was a bartender before I was a magician.

Great bet! Is the egg hardboiled? If so, peeled? Or raw? I'd think it would make a difference. I want to try this one!

What if the Hokey Pokey really IS what it's all about?

My neighbor rang my doorbell at 2:30 a.m. this morning, can you believe that, 2:30 a.m.!? Lucky for him I was still up playing my drums.

Think it has something to do with blowing downward on the egg in the first shot glass

I remember this trick/bet from a book I had as a young child and trying till I nearly passed out to blow the egg into the other glass.

I would hope now I'm 35 I have enough puff. I will try it out......

I think it depends on the lifestyle you've led....
