OK....I AM 69 AND STILL LOVE THE CIRCUS LIKE A 6 YEAR OLD.
I REMEMBER 1954 WHEN MY PARENTS DROVE MY BROTHER AND I 100 MILES WEST TO SIOUX CITY IOWA WHERE WE SAW THE ELEPHANTS GET OFF AND ON THE TRAIN AND PERFORM....NEVER GOT OVER IT...HOPE I NEVER WILL.
TONIGHT THE FIRST OF FOUR DAYS FOR THE SHRINE CIRCUS IN LAS VEGAS AT THE ORLEANS ARENA.
A COLOSSAL EFFORT TO ORGANIZE AND PRODUCE THIS 3 TIMES A DAY ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY AS WELL AS FRIDAYS PERFORMANCE.....702 365 7469....RECOMMENDED TO THE WORLD .......WE ARE GOING AGAIN !
DEAD TIME...14 MINUTES LATE AND 38 MINUTES OF COMMERICAL INTERMISSION FOR KIDS AND OLDER KIDS TO RIDE THE ELEPHANTS AND HORSES AND CAMELS AND WHATEVER....I FIND JOY IN MY OLD AGE IN WATCHING CHILDREN RIDE THE ELEPHANTS.....I DID MYSELF JUST A MONTH AGO ON OUR SAFARI IN AFRICA....ELEPHANTS ARE COOL.....AND GREAT PERFROMERS AS WERE THE FOUR IN TONIGHTS SHOW......NOT TRUE OF THE BIG CATS ....7 IN ALL WHO ALWAYS HAVE AN ATTITUDE...NONETHELESS I GOT UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL JUST TO ENJOY THEIR BEAUTY.
REALLY A PRETTY GOOD SHOW.......QUICK CHANGE ARTISTS THE HIGHLITE FOR OUR TEAM.....ACROBATS....COMEDIANS....DANCERS....MOTORCYCLE DAREDEVILS....(MOST IMPRESSIVE...THEY MADE EVIL KINEVIL LOOK LIKE THE FOOL HE WAS)....TONIGHTS YOUNGSTERS WERE FLAWLESS AND EXCIITING.....BALANCING ACT AND GUY DOING A JUG ACT ON HIS HEAD !
IMPRESSIVE TO ME THAT THE SETUP TEAM AND POOPER SCOOPERS WORE TIES AND WORKED THEIR ASSES OFF....TERMENDOUS ORGANIZATION PUTING THESE SPECIALTY ACTS UP BACK TO BACK AND I LIKED THE EFFORT.
PRETTY MUCH A GRAD A SHOW..... .....THE EFFORT LOSING 14 POINTS FOR THEIR LATE STATE (ALWAYS INEXCUSABLE)...MAYBE....
B 84
SURPRISING THEY ADVERTIZED 7....STARTED AT 714.....ADVERTIZED OPEN DOORS AT 6 AND OPENED AT 630 WITH HUNDREDS OF COMMERICAL CUSTOMERS WAITING TO GET IN AND BUY...LOOKED LIKE A MISSED OPPORTUNITY TO SELL TO ME.
LOVE THE SHRINE CIRCUS FOR GOOD CAUSE...GOT TO GO...GOT MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO SEE THIS AGAIN !
