Kansas City Shuffle

 

Kansas City Shuffle is a neologism that refers to when one looks left when they should be looking right. A more evolved definition is thus: a "Kansas City Shuffle" is a most clever deception, one that requires thought on the part of the inciter and great ignorance on the part of the deceived. The primary goal of the Kansas City Shuffle is to catch one completely off-guard and unaware.

This term is used in a movie Lucky Number Slevin (2006) starring Bruice Willis, Josh Harnett and Morgan Freeman
