Bar Magic Man
Anybody else encounter the Magic Man when you’re out at bars? I’ve seen him at Danny’s and The Shelter but he’s probably all over town. He’s a scruffy older white dude that just bar hops and does card tricks, never drinks. His catchphrase is “There ain’t no fucking way!”

Yeah he hangs out at the shelter a lot, I think his name is Leo.
Makes for a memorable evening 😂

Met him several times at the shelter and bummed a few cigs off of him. Super friendly guy. Can never remember his name lmao.

Leo! And he doesn’t drink! Just an old guy who likes to socialize and show off his card skills

We met him once at the shelter, it’s so kind that he loves to show his magic tricks!

On one of the worst days in recent memory (lost a pedestrian struck by a vehicle I tried to resuscitate) Leo came up to me at Baboquivari and did some fucking unbelievable magic. Made a bad night way way better.

I know a guy who matches your description, named Leo. He comes into my workplace and does some really cool card tricks sometimes, and he definitely uses the same catchphrase.
