It is always fun when my worlds collide. It doesn’t happen often.

That is to say, few in sports seem to care much about magic and even fewer in magic seem to care about sports. As the brilliant magician Joshua Jay says, “The Venn Diagram between magic and sports is basically nonexistent … it’s like two separate circles.”
