HOCKESSIN, DE – July 24 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — Alexander, a world-renowned psychic entertainer, will attempt to ride a bicycle around the bar at Chickie and Pete’s Sports Restaurant in Philadelphia on Friday, July 28th. He will then attempt to drive out the door and around the building, again while blindfolded.
Alexander will be one of several contestants participating in the “What Would You Do for A Harley” stunt contest, sponsored by Barbara’s Harley Davison Store in Philadelphia and WIP Radio, also in Philadelphia. The best stunt will be awarded a brand new Harley Davidson motorcycle valued at over $20,000.
The event will run from 6-10 a.m. at the restaurant, which is located at: 1300 Roosevelt Avenue, Philadelphia.
When Alexander presented his stunt to the WIP staff, Angelo Cattaldi, famed sports radio celebrity at WIP said, “I gotta see this.”
“I couldn’t resist the opportunity,” said Alexander from his home in Hockessin, Delaware. “In 1960, I drove a Mercedes out of a showroom in Panama City, Panama while in the service. So I feel very comfortable performing this stunt. I had wanted to drive the Harley but the station’s lawyers rejected that idea, so I will be riding a Tandem bike blindfolded along with a blindfolded young lady. The chance to win a Harley is also very appealing.”
He added, “Should I win, I will donate the bike to the Sunshine Foundation in Philadelphia.” The Sunshine Foundation grants wishes to children with serious and life threatening illnesses.
Alexander credits his heightened intuition and ESP for his ability to even consider the stunt. Alexander normally performs as a psychic entertainer at corporate events, nightclubs and psychic parties, throughout the world. “As a teenager, I began to realize that I was able to foresee certain events in the future,” said Alexander.
“In my later years, I recognized that there was an opportunity to perform for money after seeing people like Kreskin and Dunninger, the premier psychic entertainers of the late 20th Century I had the opportunity of studying with Dunninger before he passed away.”
Alexander will be using what he refers to as “Second Sight.” To complete the stunt, he will walk around the bar and the building to familiarize himself with the environment and then depend on his memory and psychic powers to complete the blindfold stunt. He will also perform a warm up psychic demonstration before he attempts the bike ride.
