A confidence trick is the use of confidence by someone when answering a question, and because of the confidence they evoke in the other person the answer is determined to be true. A good confidence trick can make anyone believe (nearly) anything because of the confidence the other person exudes whether it is true or false. The use of a confidence trick is used most by highly intelligent people because you need to be witty and the fact that you are playing off of what the person knows, and can know.
Confidence Trick
(After sneaking into the gym of an apartment that one does not live in)
Worker- "Do you live in this apartment complex because in order to use the gym you must live her?"
(True name)Brad(All said in perfect vocal pitch)"Yes I live in apartment 2234(a true apartment, though not his), my name is Joey Mathers (fake name) I don't have my keys because my friend just went back to the apartment to get his running shoes"
Worker- (After seeing the confidence the person is exuding and deciding its not worth it to check the computer) "Ok Joey thank you"
Brad-"No thank you!"

Like a horse race, except instead of horses, the jockeys (you and your bros)
select a trick and then debate about who would win in a race,
with the respective tricks carrying their riders on their backs.

August: Stonehenge has huge arms, she's be hecka fast for trick racing!
Peter: Real talk Dre, Electra wouldn't stand a chance but I think Big Blue could take her.
Andy: Either way, I'm doomed.
August and Peter: straight up, real talk.

An inquiry having no correct answer, or one asked for the sole purpose of starting controversy or eliciting certain responses. Basically, a no-win situation.
Girlfriend asks: do I look fat in this? (trick question)
If you tell her she does, she'll throw a fit and tell you how insensitive you are. If you tell her she doesn't she'll call you a liar and go off on a tangent about how "all men are the same" or some nonsense like that

The act of appearing in front of at least one person (but preferably many people) before and after taking a shower while holding your towel against only your pubic region, thus leaving the rest of the body entirely nude.
My roommate towel tricked me good earlier today. I saw his ass and pubes and pretty much everything except his dick and balls!
