The circus came to our city today so I decided to take the girls. Kids 12 and under were free but adult tickets were $20! I had a $2 off coupon but still. I guess that's why kids get in for free, because the adults pay for them through their ticket! lol The girls loved it though so it made it all worth it.
I was surprised by some of the acts. A clown came out and repeatedly threw an egg up in the air and caught it with his hands. He did this over and over and that was his act. I didn't think it was that funny. I could have thrown and egg up and caught it, for free. lol
Another act was two sumo wrestlers dancing to a song by the Backstreet Boys. It was kind of funny until one of the wrestlers started to do a pole dance. A POLE DANCE. It was a few minutes before he was stopped and told that it was a family event. This bugs me, if it was a family event why even put it in there in the first place? It wasn't funny, not to me.
More clowns came out for a different act, a cooking one. At one point they were trying to season a chicken but kept getting flour everywhere. Then one of the clowns started to pass gas, *flour gas.* Seriously, is this funny to anyone else? I think it's sad that these types of things are so prevalent in our society and people think it's funny. Maybe it's just me.
There were a lot of fun things to watch. The girls loved the elephants and the horses. They clapped right along with everyone else which was really cute. I bought them a huge balloon and they were pretty happy. It was mostly fun, I'm glad we went. :)

Glad you and the girls had a fun time. :) Sorry some of the acts were so dumb.
I'm glad you and the kids had fun even if some of the acts were random.
How fun for your girls to see a circus! But yeah, I would have been miffed at the distasteful "humor," too. :-(
Wow . . . yeah . . . random and distasteful are words I'd use to describe those too . . . I'm glad it was a relatively fun time though!
We went to the circus not long ago. I agree about the price and kids getting in free. I had a hard time with my kids wanting all of the extra stuff they sell. They had a good time but I agree some of the acts at our circus were a little distasteful too. We still had a good time though!
