William’s Magic in Tuscon

Last week I was performing about 45 minutes from Tuscon, AZ in a small town. I saw there was a magic shop in Tuscon, so I made the drive up to William’s Magic. I had heard of Williams Magic in the past, they had a mobile magic shop that travelled the country and went to magic conventions and clubs.

I had a blast chatting with Emory and while it’s mostly a pitch shop, he had a few things that I needed (like a double face deck).

The district that the shop was in allowed walking beers, so it was a rare occasion that I got to have a local beer in a local magic shop!

I always try to be good about supporting magic shops when I travel. If you don’t support them, you can’t complain when they close!

Uncle Stinky’s Magic

A couple of weeks ago I was at a festival and saw “Uncle Stinky” pitching the Squirmle. If you’ve never seen one, it’s an old magic toy pitch where a little worm moves around. I believe this was an extension of the Magic Mouse Pitch.

He did the pitch really well, honestly I’d be afraid to use fishing line in full sun in a festival setting, but he did it fearlessly!

There’s always a lot to learn from pitchmen, and I love watching them!
