cut the straw that makes it uneven. It is normally the ones in the middle, so make them a little shorted and the broom will stand on the outer ones. Once you have given you broom a trim you can stand it carefully.

You could try and conceal one of those action figure/dolls stands in the broom. Shove the bar into the brushes and let the base hold the broom up.

If you trim it...it will stand.
they taught it at clown camp.
That way you can also sweep with it which assures the audiance it is not gimmicted.

Madam Hooch mentioned that it was a fine broom but the company stopped making them.

Well that worked out so well -- does anyone know how to make the broom sweep the kitchen while I sit on the couch and watch a movie?
