Hi
Looking for some help/suggestions.
I need an entertaining ( interpret - 'funny')
question to ask 4-5 spectators...

I have a really good routine I'd like to try very soon at a gig
That revolves around multiple spectators, 4-5 or so
All of whom lie , except one...
And I can , with a few questions, or maybe even with one question
figure out who is whom...
The questions asked actually have nothing to do with the method
as well ahead of time , I have already understood who are the liars and who is the one truth teller.
The overall effect is similar to Ken Dyne's Mr golden balls...
But different in many ways
Plus I am working a crowd that would not at all appreciate crude questions.
Mr Dyne is amazing and he can pull off "Off Color" type questions to ask each paticipant
But I myself am trying to come up with some questions I can ask ,
which will make the spec think , and answer something interesting or funny...
(not just a Yes or No answer...)
Any suggestions would be very much appreciated...
Thanx !

Here's my suggestion:

type "funny yes or no questions" into the almighty, all-knowing, powerful oracle, GOOGLE

BAM! Hundreds upon hundreds of possible questions.

Right
I have done that
I am looking actually for something more than Just
Yes Or No , True or False questions...
I am looking for possible questions that has the spectator
think of a scenario ...
and have to come up with a few sentences description of the subject matter...
That would be a True or False/ Real / Made Up subject matter
Like I mentioned, Ken Dyne has some funny questions he asks
But they are a little 'inappropriate' for my audience
Thanx for your help

Check your local library for books with titles like The Book of Questions. I remember a friend having a book with a title like that in high school. The only question I recall was whether you would prefer to live the next year in your current financial situation and remember it live like an enormously wealthy person for a year, but have no memory of that year at the end. It made several of us kids ponder the value of memories over experiences in the moment.

Smikey. The same question that would get you thinking are the ones your participants would respond to. Humans are human regardless of their show business chops. Questions are a good way of empathetically connecting to your audience. So construct your question in a way that not only has them think but also feel. Do you remember your childhood pet and how it made you feel when yo held it. Think of it's name now. That may not be exactly what you want but you get the idea. Here is another, Have you ever dreamed of leaving Europe for a vacation to America? How do you feel the people there will respond to you? Things like that which not only tickle the mind but also the heart.

Thanx for you'all taking the time to respond
much appreciated !
