The other day, I realized that the probability of me performing the C&Bs the way I used to was almost zero, so why not share it with you? Hopefully, a few of you may have some fun with it. Essentially, I did the trick with flies. Little plastic ones from a joke shop will do. For the final loads, I would ask something like "and do you know why the flies keep buzzing around?" And then I'd show that under each cup was a pile of fake doggie poo with some flies glued on it. It was a very fun little routine with some fun lines, and the final loads got great reactions and laughter. A friend at the magic shop suggested I pull out the flies from a small jar of Vaseline, but noone got the joke. (Fly in the ointment) Of course, this isn't recommended for all audiences, but always fun for me to do.

Haha, I'm sorry I ruined some of your tea! Also, you'd be surprised how many effects you can turn around to have something like this. Very fun to goof off with. At one point, I even had a little fly swatter I made that was collapsible to go with it, but it broke.

There was a paddle routine about 20 years ago that used flies and a paddle that was shaped like a flyswatter.
