I've had the obligatory tracts.
I also get a lot of Euro coins (being in the UK, we can't use them here). I'm not sure if it's people being "funny", or simply because they don't have English currency on them, as sometimes I get Euro notes, too. I have a jar at home I put them in, and each year when I go to France, or elsewhere in "Euro zone", I use them. Last year, when I counted it up at the end of the summer, I had about $200 worth! It all adds up. Dominick |

Funny thing with different currents. I get all kind of different coins, some of which I don't know what it is. I perform a lot at tourist attractions, and I guess that's why I get the spare strange change. I also have a jar to put them in, but I don't get to use it. Good when you need a strange coin for a magic effect, though.

I dunno if I'm just in a laughing mood, but I'm enjoying this thread so very much. I've laughed at everything, including local rappers CDs, contraception, The Leafs, and even the bad conundrum pun...The Leafs.
I've gotten foreign money (always get those), strip club fliers, and a mostly eaten chicken wing. ...The Leafs. Eddie

I've also had a false nail; not sure if she meant to leave it in the hat, though!!

So far...
Several shiny glass pebbles A couple of crystals Some SCA money (no lie - they minted their own coins) ...but my favorite is the two $20 bills from the BANK OF ZIMBABWE. I can't bring myself to even consider cashing those in. Because, hey, ZIMBABWE!

In London, a guy offered to take me to see Cats the musical...later found out he was gay (before we ended up at his place).
In Oakland, CA Dead Concert, a trippy tie-dyed hippy came up to me in the crowd while I was in a straitjacket and put an acid on my lips. The crowd wanted me to take it...I said I would if someone gave me a concert ticket. I got one, then had my first Dead Show experience. In San Francisco, a Filipino business woman put an pill in my hat. I asked her what it was, we went for a drink in her hotel room right next to the pitch, she said it was an e-pill, good night was had by all, and I was smiling and showered as I walked 50mtrs to the pitch the next day. In Rotterdam, I had a switch blade dropped in. Again in San Fran, I got a bin liner full of Mrs. Fields Cookies and a ticket for a boat trip round Alcatraz, Bottles of wine, beer cans (empty and full), meat packs, water, socks, gloves, chewing gum, pebbles, candy, leaves, condoms, business cards, casino chips, phone numbers, matches, spit, dirt, lighters, cigarettes, sandwiches, sausages, and hotel keys have all entered my hat...but alas, no money. But who needs it when you have the above? Ahh, the joys of busking. Nick |

So true. I just re-read my post, and it sounded a bit harsh. Sorry if it came off that way to others, as well.
Anyone ever CAUGHT somebody putting any of that crap in the hat? What, if anything, did you say or do about it? I mean, YUCK! on some of them. |
