Hey guys.

As you can see, I am fairly new here to Theory 11.
Though I have been lurking these forums as a guest for a while.
Just quickly, I have been doing magic for about two and a half years now.

Anyway to get the point :p

Im looking for ways to use 'New Era" kind of style hat's into my Magic.
You know that flat brim, fitted hat's.

Well I need some effects to do with those hats.
Thanks a bunch in advance!

YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT THE NEW ERA HATS!?!?!?!?

Ok. Maybe you've seen them but don't know what they are. Um... they are the caps with the golden circle sticker on the top of the jutting out part of the cap.

Yeah man exactly like those.
The funny thing is I have that first hat on the list :D

So is there anything I can incorporate magic wise with "New Era" hat's.

Be creative, if you know some card tricks, maybe you could somehow use your hat in it. Like, you have them pick a card, and then they put it back into the deck, and shuffle it. While they are holding the deck, you take your hat off and show them that there's a card inside(their card). Yeah, so just be creative and maybe you could figure something out. OR maybe you could vanish a coin and have it reappear in your hat. I really can't think of how New Era effects would be different from baseball cap effects. I haven't really heard of any hat magic tricks so, maybe you could start a new trend. Good Luck man.

In one of the tarbell books there are tons of card shooting methods that are meant to be caught by a hat, the DVD Session Dynamo teaches a card effect involving a hat. I believe in some of Daniel MAdisons notes he incorporates a hat. Their is the change hat or whatever too. Its like a changebag hat.

Well for one, it's a hat. Maybe those hats with the "gangster" stuff on it is the style the person likes. I personally have one that's a New Era hat and it has a Vancouver Canucks logo on it, it's a sports team not a pot leaf or a gun. But, the ones shown in the picture were rather hip-hopish though.

As for your question, VagueTheory's idea is awesome. It doesn't cost much to get something embroidered and it could really help your act. If you have them, you could stick a Stained Skin tattoo under the brim, and see if that works.

Or, even get creative and create your own ideas. I haven't heard much in the "hat magic" genre but, you can use your magic intuition and do what you want.

Wow!
Thank you for the helpful advice there guys!

But I appreciate it.
Im going to see if I am able to make my own Change Cap out of one of my older hat's, and go from there.

I'll keep you guys updated.

Thanks again!

Hehe, say, thanks. But I personally wouldn't used Stained Skin. They cost too much, and you could...well used other stuff. I would rather draw stuff on my skin using a Sharpie than waste money on those things. Just my $0.02.
