Yep, when even your clowns look worn out and exhausted then it's time to close the doors. That, of course, explains Barack Obama's departure, Hillary's defeat, and the mud on the faces of the DNC and the Mainstream Media, but at to Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey it's probably just a coincidence . . .
Had no idea they would close, thought they were doing fine. Oh well, that is why we document this stuff in photos... https://danielteolijr.wordpress.com/2016/05/21/the-circus-elephant-an-end-of-an-era/
I think it may be tough for the unemployed circus acts to get jobs. I never thought the Ringling Bros would end up on the fossil list... http://www.sideshowworld.com/
I hope they broadcast the last show and it is recorded for posterity. Used to be you could see diving horses in NJ. https://danielteolijr.files.wordpre...aniel-d-teoli-jr-archival-collection-5-mr.jpg Peta plans to stop all eating of meat, fish, rodeos, fishing, horseracing, hunting, zoos, bullfighting, equestrian games, show animals, parade animals, furs, leather shoes, clothes and accessories, work animals and medical experiments...I'm not too clear on their stance for pets, but maybe banning pets as well? Mutton busting is almost gone already... https://danielteolijr.files.wordpress.com/2016/05/1958-est-mutton-buster.jpg We never know when things will disappear overnight. Document your world for future generations.
PETA must take on the world's worst offenders---primitive hunter-gather cultures in New Guinea, and the Amazon. They should throw blood on them and protest at their camps.
