Tide in the Middle - Walk around, Commedy, Stage Prop.

I bought one of these 10 years ago.  I ran across the maker of these at the St. Louis Magic Convention.  I asked if he was still making these.  When he said yes, I was elated.   Now I can share them with you.

Here is the gag...   You have a change bag (sold separatly) and show it empty.  Then tell someone that it would be a great trick if you can put a rope in the bag, and pull it out "tied in the middle".   Of course you are going to have several people murmur that they know how the trick is done.   That always happens to me, and is an annoyance to any magician.  But in this case you zing them.   When you pull the rope it isn't "tied in the middle".   It is "TIDE IN THE MIDDLE".   It gets the laughs since you have just zinged any one.  Who cares if they know how this one is done, since what they were expecting isn't what they got.

This is a great gag, and the magical/comical value is high, but for a small price.

I totally love this one, and I am sure you will get a lot of "mileage" out of this.
