No Cole Bros., no elephants on Ringling, no Big Apple and no future schedule on Carson and Barnes. How sad for those few of us who still cared. Evidently there are just not enough fans still alive to support even the cut down shows we've had this century. I still remember the real Kelly Miller in the late 1950's with elephants galore, plus cat acts and everything else that's a real circus. It played my hometown in Kentucky even though our population was only 7000, yet we filled the tent that night. Then I remember the great Gunther years on Ringling. What a show person. I may have an extra libation tonight as I grieve for what we have lost just this year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
