We read in the Las Vegas Sun this afternoon that Carl Ballantine received his well-deserved Magician of the Year from the Las Vegas IBM Ring:
Moment of magic: A capacity crowd turned out Tuesday at FAO Schwarz at
the Forum Shops at Caesars to honor comic magician Carl Ballantine, who
was presented the Magician of the Year Award by the Las Vegas chapter
of International Brotherhood of Magicians.
Penn & Teller and Mac King were among the members of the local
magic community who turned up; among the items auctioned to benefit the
Las Vegas Boys and Girls Clubs was a rubber chicken signed by
Ballantine that fetched $500 …”
The gathering of great magicians for a great brother in our art is
fantastic. That the gathering raised money for the Girls and Boys
Clubs is even better.
