Erik "Aces" Anderson
His business card reads: "The Quintessential Con Artist of the
Old West". I had the honor of meeting "Aces" at the
2005 Iowa State Fair. His performance/demonstration of con artist
'games' was excellent! I highly recommend seeing one of his
performances. Better yet, have him come to your next event.
