Circus, Circus

Last night, my company sponsored an exclusive event, a private showing of the Ringling Bros., Barnum and Bailey Circus down at the brand new Chaifetz center at St. Louis Univ. It was AWESOME. I know there is a LOT of people out there that are so ANTI-circus cause they "abuse" the animals.

We got to see BMX'ers, Trapeez artists, Tight rope walkers, dogs, horses, elephants and tigers. Even ended in a grand finale with the human cannonballs (a husband/wife duo).

Nate was enthralled with it all. Except for some of it drug a little. And we were sitting in Stadium seats so it wasn't exactly designed for toddlers.

Here's an ad from YouTube that kind of shows what we saw (although, no flames on the tightwire, too much of firehazard I guess).
