A con-game table for a Morehead City client dinner.
After a day on the water, give the people ashore a reason to gather. I bring con games, dice magic, and bar bets to Morehead City client dinners. Nobody has to make a speech about team building.
If a client outing includes the Morehead City waterfront and Charter Boat Row, the people coming off the boat may be ready for dinner well after the guests who stayed ashore. Have me open a small con-game station in the private room while people arrive. Two clients can try to spot a switch; a third can watch with the conviction that it’s all quite obvious from over there. I generally like to invite that person back for round two.
Leave a clean break for the thank-yous.
My end of the entertainment needs neither a sound system nor an audience seated in rows. Put the cards where colleagues can stop for a hand on the way to their table. If you have fishing prizes, sponsor remarks, or an employee award, name the person who will cue me to finish. I’ll put the dice away before they present anything that actually belongs on someone’s desk.
Send the dining room or hospitality address rather than the boat slip, and let me know if clients prefer straightforward sleight of hand to bar bets. We can agree on the tone before the first guest walks in.
Text me your date, venue, and adult guest count. I’ll confirm availability, the format, and your total quote, including any travel costs, before you book.
