Six year-old Jerry Rorbach, with chocolate ice cream on his new t-shirt and blue frosting on his mouth, was bitten on his birthday by the magician’s disappearing rabbit.

He screamed horribly when it happened, but no one noticed amid the shrieking of twenty sugar-infused six year-olds and four wine-sipping frazzled mothers as referees.

Jerry 's teenaged sister Melissa brought him over when the noise got to her. "Here, Mom. He says the rabbit bit him."
