There's a no smoking sign just before Tom entered. lol so ironic.

Great magician, funny as hell and actor too. Tom Mullica the one and only

Tom Mullica was something else. I saw him on tv thirty-odd years ago and his act stayed in my mind ever since. Maybe all the best magicians should make you ask 'not how, but why?'

Back when I was working with Joe Stevens I got to meet the great Tom Mullica who was one of the funniest magicians that I ever knew. I got to see him perform at the Tom Foolery in Buckhead in Atlanta Georgia. I even parked my truck right across the street from his place. I couldn't believe I could get so lucky. He was a great friend after that and went on to perform in Las Vegas. I have had some very lucky moments in my life and meeting Tom Mullica was one of them.

Rest in peace Tom!

I gave up smoking after watching this video. Worked better than any other thing i've tried.

From Wikipedia, if anybody's interested: "On February 15, 2016, Mullica was placed in an induced coma following complications stemming from a routine hernia operation, which caused him to have several strokes. He subsequently suffered from organ and liver failure. On February 18, it was decided to take Mullica off life support.[9] He was 67 years of age."
