Albert Lucas is a juggler. He holds the official record for being the only person to flash 13 rings. He is also rumoured to have flashed 14 rings. He also held at one time the record for the longest 10 ring juggle, and is the first person to have qualified 10 objects in competition. He has performed since the 1970s, in Las Vegas shows and many other venues. He can do his act while ice skating, and spent several years performing in the Busch Gardens show; "Around the World on Ice." He won the IJA Senior Championship in 1984, and is the only person to have performed at both the NBA Finals and the NHL Stanley Cup Finals. He also has a juggling trick named after him. 'ALBERT' is a reverse under the leg throw, made from front to back without either foot leaving the floor.
