Funnel Cloud

On time my college friend and me were bored, so we rehearsed this trick we had heard about. My friend became pretty good at putting a penny on his head and then dropping it inside a funnel he had placed in the front of his pants.
For April Fool's Day, we decided to take this show on the road. First we stopped off at the convenience store and got ourselves a couple of super big slushy drinks. Then we went to a nearby mini-mall.
Right in the middle of the outdoor mall my friend started performing his penny in the funnel trick. Small groups of curious people would come and go. Then finally some dude who looked like he was trying way too hard to impress his girlfriend asked to try the trick.
He placed the funnel in the front of his pants and we handed him the penny we had been using. We even let him try it once, and after he failed, we encouraged him to try again. It was this time that we poured our slushies into the funnel and ran like hell.
He was shocked and didn't even chase us. He probably didn't even know what he would do if he had caught the two of us (it was good to stick together on this).
Anyway, that was our prank. I'm still curious to know if he had gotten another date out of her.
