  Ten Cool (and Free) Magic Bar Tricks

  contributed by rtcrooks June 24, 2008 at 11:22pm

  With oil prices increasing and the US economy on the downward, people are drinking more and looking for creative ways to make some extra money (for beer). I'd like to think that the following tricks would enable you to do both. While some of them could be done after light drinking, it should be noted that for most a mild level of sobriety is either needed or recommended. Find a few from those featured below, practice until you get them down perfectly, and then take them to the bar and house party of your choice. Women will want you, and men will want to be you. The transformation from regular joe to bonafide stud will be as if one day you woke up, looked in the mirror, and were suddenly Burt Reynolds.

  
  Pick up a shot with your open palm:
  This is a great trick to do when someone thinks you are as drunk as they are: bet them easy money on something seemingly impossible. Oh, alcohol - I love you.

  
  

  
  Remove a bill trapped between bottles:
  Truly an amazing trick. This is a trick probably done better while sober. You could definitely make some money with this one at the bar once you get it down.

  
  

  
  

  Bend a cigarette in half without breaking it:

  Think you can't bend a cigarette all the way? Well with the help of your buddies Abraham Lincoln or Ben Franklin, maybe you can. Your best bet is to save this for the ladies and bet them Jager bombs that you can do it. Then when you can, make them take a shot with you.

  Remove the cork out of a bottle:
  This is unbelievable. Do you think this is how they build those little clipper ships inside the bottles?

  Poke your finger through bottle cap in mid air:
  At first glance, this finger seems like a really tiny Power Team member. Definitely a trick that requires some practice. Once you get it down, however, you are going to be the life of the party.

  Jumping matches:
  This is a good trick to use on your friends that you are pretty much baby-sitting, but you don't want them to pass out.... like after they were trying to do a backflip off of the hood of your 1998 Honda Civic and hit their head on the mail box and ate shit and now have a concussion.

  
  

  
  

  Blow a bottle cap into a bottle:
  

  My favorite of these tricks. It's really funny watching people get frustrated when it comes to tricks. Post up at the bar and bet strangers a beer on this little gem...by the end of the night you'll be laughing all the way to the drunk tank.

  Land a match on its skinny side:
  A clever trick with a premise that will raise some eyebrows. How the hell are you going to get the match to land on the skinny side? But when you start thinking about it after the fact, you start wondering also why anyone would have ever bet on the Lakers in the NBA Finals.

  
  

  
  

  The trapped coin:
  Science and mechanics have confused us once again. Could you imagine what it would have been like to have been one of the first humans to encounter fire? In the end, we are all still like children.

  
  

  
  

  Glass height vs. circumference illusion:
  This is one of the more interesting bar tricks you'll find, and the fact that it is surprising explains why our country imports people into the technological and science industries.
