Best one I ever pulled off was telling the two HS girls at the table that my partner (2-person) was severely dyslexic and warning them that he would say a number like "53" but show the number "35" with his hands, so they needed to really concentrate on what he was saying and really encourage him when he got it all correct...then stood back and watched them lean way over the table to stare at him, and give him big smiles, thumbs-up, and even clap for him a few times as he reported fouls...at halftime when he brought it up, I played all innocent and told him I hadn't noticed...after the game, when he was saying "What the hell was that all about?", I finally broke down and told him...he got a pretty good laugh out of it. Funny though, I've never been the R with him since then. Hmmmm...
