The performances were great, although one of the cycles stalled and one guy was injured. They had 6 guys in the ball at one point, pretty nuts! I was a bit surprised when they turned frown the lights 5 or 6 times and advertised the lame-o ONCE IN A LIFETIME oppertunitys to purchase the light up sabers and spinning led orbs, couldn't believe they were trying to sell that shit as hard as they were. Had a great time though.

We were there at the 10am Saturday show as well. I agree that the hard selling of the merchandise was pretty annoying. Also, I didn't like that they had rides and stuff at the intermission. They could have done that all at the end of the show. The kids liked the cycles and the Human Cannon. I did as well, but I also liked some of the women they had on the ropes and in costume doing the dancing.

Of course they could have been good from afar, but far from good. lol

That last line is probably dead on, they all looked great but you gotta remember, they are carnies :rolf The cycle thing was awesome

Yep, I agree. I was glad to see the one guy come back to the cycle dome after getting hurt. Looks like you were almost directly across from us. Nice pics.

^ Yah, we def sat on the wrong side. Saw the backside of everything, but was still a good time. Did you buy a clown nose for 2 dollars? Hah, what a scam the circus has become.

Yep, the kids wouldn't let me leave without getting them a stupid nose. Man, I don't know about the other circus's, but the Tripoli Shriners were out to make money and that was their main focus it seemed.

has become? it's always been a scam! It's cool to see once every 5-10 years but that's about it. Bummer you saw the backside of everything. Do they still get a huge turnout of "bebe kids"?
