We went to L.A. for a week of work, including guest shots for the guys on Donny & Marie and Roseanne (who also shot a remote with them for our show, doing a two-man version of a classic Eddie Fechter card trick that I suggested), and a remote spot with Shaquille O'Neal. This was a comic sketch, shot at Planet Hollywood in Beverly Hills, in which Shaquille and Teller engage in an eating contest, and via some underhanded help from Penn and an assortment of hungry animal friends, Teller eventually wins. Shaq is a pretty laid-back guy and a great audience for magic, and so in between set-ups I had fun doing close-up magic for him. It's obvious to comment on the size of this guy, but suffice to say, that midget on the left is actually me. He doesn't so much shake your hand as envelop it Â- if Shaq did magic he could probably palm two decks of cards in one hand Â- side by side!
