Here's a new one I gotta share with you guys. Hundreds and hundreds of shows and this never happened before.
I've just been strapped into the straitjacket when this two year old boy (unattended by the way)gets up and grabs a single out of my tip jar. I made a joke about how he's gonna tip me with my own cash at the end. Then this little .... wonderful child proceeds to tear it into four pieces. At that point my good buddy, George wrestled the remains out of his grubby little hands. I finished up the escape and got my best hat of the night from that show so I'm not complaining. I just thought it was funny. I've always kept one dollar in the jar as bait so I just taped it back together and stuck it back in the jar. That way I'll never forget that show or that kid.
So sorry I soiled your precious eyes.

"some parents" didn't leave their tip jar out where a two-year-old could reach it.

"Yes folks, my tiny assistant will now attempt to perform the magic "dollar bill tear, right after someone changes his diaper!" Gotta hate being "up-staged" by a 2 year old.

Same thing happened to me today, except the kid didn't quite get the cash. Her parents gave her a couple bucks to put in my hat, she walked up, and just stood there for a couple seconds. I put my hat towards her and said "Thank You!" She reached in in with her empty hand to grab some, so I pulled my hat back before she got any and said "I mean 'You're welcome!'"
Her parents got a kick out of it. |

Would have been funny if the primer bill was glued to the bottom of the jar.

It would have been even funnier if the primer bill was flypaper glued to the bottom of the jar.

So YOU`RE the guy who molested my sweet little two year old! Poor Wally. He hasn´t been the same since!! Meany!!!
But, we DID work well together. While Wally was up front havin´ his fun, I cleaned out the whole back row! Your cut´s in the mail. (,...invest it in a haircut.) smiles ´n kisses, gallagher. |

What in the world would I do with a haircut? That's not going to help me figure out a better needle swallowing method! I'll go out looking like Grizzly Adams if I want! Dare Me! Wait! ... If I had a beard ... people might think I was hiding the needles in it. Ok. That will not work, so don't dare me.
Note to self, shave.
So sorry I soiled your precious eyes.

I watched this happen with my own eyes, & let me tell you I had to pick my jaw up off the floor.
It was one thing for the kid to take a buck but it was ridiculous when he ripped into tiny little pieces, where in the world were his parents!?!? |

I once did linking rings at a birthday party for little kids. I'm 6'3" tall. The kids reached waist height. I use a standard set of rings. The kids reached waist height.
Don't know why I was surprised when a kid said, "Hey look...." |

Bob White told me a story about Pressley Guitar that was pretty amusing.
As it happened, Pressley was performing at the State Fair of Texas and had a young kid of about eight to help him with a trick. Pressley used real silver coins and handed the kid a silver dollar and said "That is a dollar made of real silver, have you ever seen one of these?". The kid took a look at the coin, a look at Pressley, and he bolted off into the crowd...with the coin. Everybody fell apart laughing. Kids really do some of the funniest things......stealing isn't one of them. |
