EFFECT: The magician helps a spectator predict their future! She selects one of 12 earth shaking predictions. After a series of free choices, she arrives at a card that predicts she will "make passionate love to a clown!" What??? But when she looks up, you stand before her wearing a clown nose.
This fun item can be presented when the conversation turns to psychics, astrology, or any other B.S. about predicting the future.
I like to do it at gigs where the guests are on line waiting to have their fortune told.

"My friend Rich Marotta sent me this new effect as a sample and every demonstration of this effect has resulted in tremendous surprise and laughter. This has got to be one of the funniest effects I have seen in many years. This is really the kind of magic I like!
You show twelve cards that say "What Your Future Holds" on the front side. On the back are various predictions of a spectator's future. These are shown very freely and shown to be different. The spectator ends up selecting one of these cards through a very fair process.
On turning over the card they selected, it reads "You Will Make Passionate Love to a Clown." When they look up, there you are with a red clown nose on your face. Believe me, it results in instant laughter.
The selection is very convincing and has gone by most of the magicians I have shown it to. Of course it's the ending that really sells it.
I predict this to be one of the biggest sellers of the year. I love this!"
