The circus is coming...

[mswerb]

To Dudley Park in Willowick. This will be the 3rd straight year for us, and I can't wait. When I first heard that a circus was to take place in Willowick I had my doubts. This was easily one of the most entertaining things I have attended in a while. Thursday, July 31 is the date. The times are 4:30 and 7:30 and tickets will not last. You can get your tickets at Manry Park in Willowick. Cost is $9.00 for adults, and I beleive children under 12 is $6.00 or $7.00. This is well worth the money, and I highly recommend it.

What about the circus at 9th and Ontario?

East 9th and Ontario, I would call that a train wreck, not a circus.

I also plan to hit up the Dudley circus again this year.

Saw one in Mentor years back and a mule drop kicked a lady in a wheelchair................then the next night an elephant escaped and was running down rt.615...........................glad my kids are old enough.......I can't stand the circus although if it had more of the above I'd be more interested

"The idea that it is funny to see wild animals coerced into acting like clumsy humans, or thrilling to see powerful beasts reduced to cringing cowards by a whipcracking trainer is primitive and medieval. It stems from the old idea that we are superior to other species and have the right to hold dominion over them."

I've never been to a circus in my life. This thread kinda makes me want to go just for shits and giggles.
