Or a funnier gag would be to do a spin in your new suit and its completely the wrong size - a skin tight jacket with the button forced closed and the trousers are far too short exposing your ankles.
And then you turn around to do a spin and the seam down the back if the jacket has ripped apart where you have tried to button it up at the front.

thanks discoman - although there is a 'gag' security tag you can pick up thats magnetic and doesnt actually have dye - built just for the gag

anyone ever seen it about?

cheers,

Shawn Farquhar's 'Tagged' gives you such a clip plus a card routine to go with it

thanks - i know about that routine, but trouble is I want x2 and that should be inexpensive compared with getting his routine

If you were to buy a batch, I would take a three or four. Maybe others would chip in for a few?

Well again yer just ask over the counter of a clothes store and they will give you a couple.

Iv performed this gag a few times on stage and walkaround (thou walkaround careful of angles as others may see the gag before you attempt it.)

The reason i say careful of angles also is because i normally perform an effect with it a card to under tag. I no not original but that what has worked in the past for me.

i normally perform it as a link back. "does anyone know how to get rid of these??" (or other WITTY line) perform card effect, where a cards signed. Then after few effects mention the WITTY line again turn round and the cards under the tag and needs to be torn off

Thats how i perfomed it any how.

If you want more details on the routine PM me. (attaching tag, loading card ect)

Im happy to help

hey sammy - how the devil do you get the tag off once its on? Do you have a remover? If its a real one, the more you use a tag ive also heard dye leaks...this sounds ominous for my pretty suit.

Can you manipulate the tag to magnetise it?

Just for the sake of the quick gag (as opposed to a magic routine), I've used a genuine price label (from something I bought) clipped on my inside pocket with a large silver safety pin (disguised a little) - and it works well. it may be an old gag (to magicians) but it still gets a laugh with the public. I'm a wedding toastmaster and, every time, when someone comments or jokes about how nice my redtailcoat looks ...... Then I do the gag. A quick moment but gets a laugh every time.

hay well the tag I use, iv broken it open, using a drill. And after some alterations is magntised to my jacket, thou using a sublte rouse, when ripping card out from underneth it. It can convince that the tag is in fact pinned (ie a normal tag)

For more detail mate just PM us

Thanks
Hope this helps
