happythoughts 0 #1 January 7, 2007 I saw the RB circus tonight at the Ice Palace in Tampa. Awesome. People get used to seeing stuff on tv. This is amazing to see in person. The performers are athletes. Acrobats, trapeze, gymnasts doing flips, that-flexible-pole-trick. Strong, flexible. Regardless of what people say about tigers being tame or whatever, I would definitely not like to be in the cage with them. Some were just not happy-kitties. Elephants are very cool. Edited to add: I also wolfed down my share of the cotton candy and a drink. The cotton candy came with a large mad-hatter style hat. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #3 January 7, 2007 No. I see that at the county fair every year though. They did have the thing that looks like O---O. Two big steel Os that spin on a bar in the middle while 2 people run inside and outside the Os. One guy even skipped rope on the outside. As easy as it is to intellectualize that you could run and stay on top easily, it rises and falls 20 ft. It looks like you could easily mess up also.
