LAS VEGAS, NV - Illusionist Criss Angel came forward on Wednesday March 25, 2020. to report that he had an announcement. Reporters gathered on the Las Vegas strip for the impromptu News Conference during which Angel admitted that he was responsible for making Las Vegas Casino patrons disappear while practicing for a show. "I have made lots of things disappear, including the Statue of Liberty, but I have not made my own customers disappear before." Claimed Angel.

Vegas, normally a 24/7, 365 day, bustling gambling destination was eerily quiet for the first time since  Nov. 25, 1963 when John F. Kennedy was assassinated. All casinos on the Las Vegas strip were empty.

"Mind Freak", Angel's show at Planet Hollywood normally employs 60 people and is sold out in advance.

Penn & Teller's Penn Gillette, another longtime Las Vegas Illusionist and avowed atheist, stated he does not believe in any Angels claims. There is always a secular explanation, argued Gillette. "I had an award winning show called Bullsh*t for many seasons and I know it when I hear it." 

Meanwhile in other news, the Governor of Nevada Steve Sisolak has banned any nonessential activity in the state.
