Wyrick, Steve — The flashy, longtime Las Vegas magician recently closed his show at Planet Hollywood and yesterday declared for bankruptcy, citing only $5,500 and citing the source as “loans and gifts from mother.” It appears Wyrick is great at making things disappear; not so great at having them reappear.
