street performers

The first known use of 'The Shell Game' was recorded in 1890. This variation on 'Three Card Monte' is straight forward. The performer picks a 'mark' from the crowd and shows him/her a pea located under one of three (or more) shells.

If you’ve ever taken the time to really listen to street performers, you’ll notice that most are extremely talented, and unfortunately, they often go unnoticed. But these guys have brought street performance to an entirely new level of awesome, and they’re definitely gaining attention.
