Presto

Christopher Bange "More Bange For Your Buck"

More from The Fringe: Seattle's Christopher Bange, magician, in his show "More Bange For Your Buck." And part of his act had something to do with money. At one point he borrowed a $20 bill from me had me write my name on it with red marker. It mysteriously disappeared, of course. 

When it looked like he was nearly finished I gave him a questioning gesture. He pulled a perfect lemon out of nowhere and handed it to me. Of course, I was puzzled. He pulled out a sharp knife and quickly split it. As he handed it back to me I saw rolled currency in the center. I pulled it out - one dollar. Did I get my twenty back? Of course, but I can't tell you how. That would spoil the trick.
