Hey this is me again and this time i'm gonna talk to you about this gag i pulled on my friend a few months back. This gag is known as 'the race'. Before i start i would like to say that this scam is not original and no credit should be given to me. i came across it one day when i was browsing through the net.
So i was at this party. it was going fine. good food, decent music, but in my mind this party wouldn't be complete unless i pulled a scam on someone (the look on their faces once they realize that they have been scammed is legendary). so i called this girl (incidentally this was the girl who's house the party was in) and told her that i could drink three large glasses of water before she could finish three shot glasses filled with water. she seemed a little unsure so i upped the ante and said i would have to drink three and a half glasses. she agreed rather hesitantly (i have a reputation of being some sort of con man among my friends) and we both went on to put ten bucks on the table. i poured out the the glasses. a feeling of doubt had started creeping into me. i had never tried this gag before and if i lost my own bet i would never be able to show my face in front of this girl again. i poured the glasses and laid forward the rules. the rules were simple. Whoever finished their water first without any outside interference first would be the winner. Also we couldn't touch each other (or it would turn into some sort of brawl) nor could we touch each others glasses (this rule is very important. you'll see why in a moment). With a signal from a friend we started the race. I quickly finished my glass which was half filled and slammed it face first over one of her glasses which was full. i don't think she fully understood what had happened and as she spread her hand to remove my glass form hers i reminded her that we couldn't touch each others glasses. She just stood their with this blank expression on her face. i quickly downed my other two glasses and won the bet. i felt sorry for the girl as it happened to be her birthday so i told her she didn't have to pay me. she paid me anyway ( i guess she appreciated the elegance of the scam.
i haven' used this scam since then although it is a really good one. while performing this gag great caution should be taken while laying down the rules, especially the fact that the competitors can't touch each others glasses. I will gladly answer any questions that arise regarding this gag. Also feel free to give in your own variations to this scam. i would love to hear your success as well as failure stories.
On a side note. With the Barclays English premiere league coming up i would love to know who you support and who you think will win....
