In Vegas Spencer and I got tickets to go see David Copperfield. We had seats that were in the middle of the theater and pretty close in the center. I don't have any pictures because you weren't allowed to take any bu I do have an amazing story.
Before the show started Spencer was looking stuff up on his cell phone and this lady who worked at the theater walked up to us and I though we were going to get yelled at for having our phone out. She then said, " Hey would you guys like to be part of the show? All you have to do is while this intro movie is playing I will escort you by the door and then after his first trick I will walk you down FRONT and CENTER seats and he will make a joke about you being late to show."
So of course we said YES!
After his magical appearance on a motorcycle the spotlight was on us and she walked us to our NEW seats that were the best seats in the house. It was amazing. I was a little embarrassed but it was totally worth it! They were great seats although I still dont know he did what he did! AMAZING!
BUT there's more.....
Not only were kind of in the show in the beginning, but while Copperfield was walking through the audience he grabbed my hand and another girl and took us on stage to do a magic trick!!!!!! ( and NO pictures were allowed remember so you have to take my work for it)
He had me and this girl put on a pair of rubber black gloves and then hold this clear plastic TV tray between us. I had trouble putting on my glove + stage fright so he made some jokes about it. ( according to Spencer I was very comical...) Then he brought out a scorpion in a small opened box. ( I am freaking out by this point trying to keep my cool). Then he tells me to take of my glove...so i DO, then he grabs my hand and starts to put it in the box like im going to grab it....then i pull my hand away because..well let me see..a scorpion!!!! Then he says Just kidding and gives me a deck of cards to examine instead. I shuffle them then I pick a card. Teh i place it inside then I shuffle it again. I give him back the deck and he fans it into a circle, then put a large clamp on the cards, picks up the scorpion and it grabs my card.....
Amazing!! and so cool because I was in the show!
He so many super amazing tricks. If you ever get the chance GO see the show.
So this picture is no joke i saw him to this trick right in front me! no mirrors. WOW
pretty awesome, ashley!
ReplyDeletei'll try to remember this story about him rather than the one about him hitting on a friend's girlfriend :).
Ashley! We were in school too long...so conditioned to think that we are going to get in trouble for having a cell phone out. :) That sounds like to much fun! What a cool experience! I love those pictures of what you wore that night! SO classy!
