And I’m not talking about that slutty looking cougar in the corner making eyes at you. I’m talking about how to land that goth-girl that looks like she plays with Magic cards. How can you get her? Easy, by doing sleight-of-hand and physics-type tricks at the bar!

Wired.com has a whole series of them, check it out!

“Playing With Fire
Whiskey and flames make this the Snake River Canyon of bar stunts. First, bet your buddies you can pick up a shot glass with the flat palm of your hand, no cupping. Then fill said glass about halfway with 100-proof well whiskey (80 proof won’t do) and set it ablaze. Press your palm firmly over the mouth of the glass: The flame dies instantly and the resulting vacuum seals the glass to your hand. Lift. Celebrate your feat with a (now free) single malt.

Balancing Act
This is more of a trick to play on someone else and may get you a drink or two. Bet someone they can’t balance a full beer with only their thumbs. The trick is to have them only place their thumbs on the edge of the bar. Now you take a full beer and balance it on their two thumbs. When they succeed, say “Well, guess you can” and walk away. They will spend a few minutes or more trying to get the beer off their thumbs.”
