There WAS pickup this past Saturday morning thanks to Brian, who got Charlie and myself to come down. Although the Monument grounds were one big puddle, we found some high and dry ground on the far side of the Monument between 14th &15th Sts. Along with Chris, cursing Russell, Patrick and Yung (sp?), we played 3-on-3 for about 90 minutes until it started to rain.

Disappearing Trick: Details revealed within comments

Here is the effect as seen by the audience:
Five frisbees are tossed out into the audience. Whoever catches a Frisbee is asked to join the performer on stage. The performer explains that the people who caught the Frisbees may seem random, but are in fact not. Adding to that he explains that certain people "attract" particular colors. The "law of attraction" if you will.
As each person approaches the stage the performer gives a hilarious comedy reading to them regarding their color.
As a finale the performer explains he will test an audience member to see if they can read the performer's mind.
A sixth volunteer is asked to try and read the performer's mind and "receive" the thought of color the performer is trying to send him mentally.
After a little humorous banter the volunteer finally announces the color that has popped into his mind. To the complete astonishment of the audience the performer proceeds to show that indeed the volunteer is correct in his "hunch".
The performer tells the volunteer to blurt out the color that pops into their mind when I snap my fingers. They say "green" for example, and then the performer announces that's exactly right! and it gets a huge laugh. Then the performer proceeds to show proof that was the target color via a great reveal that is NOT just pulling a piece of paper out your pocket that says green.
The five different colors are represented by the frisbees the spectator's hold as Human Visual Aids if you will. The spectators can also be used in a dramatic way to help with the final revelation.
The volunteers are then used for a very strong follow up effect where each one of their thoughts are revealed. This effect is taught as a bonus routine in the manual.
Huh?
