Growing up in Los Angeles it was a must to see the Ringling Brothers circus when it came to town. I remember my sister and I would begged our parents to get us those super yummy animal crackers. I will never forget the red box with all the animals on it with the string attached so that you could carry them. Childhood memories are the best! Well, the owners of the Greatest Show on Earth told the Associated Press that this show will no longer be on the road as of this May.
According to the L.A. Times, Ringling Bros. has two touring circuses this season and will perform 30 shows through May. Major stops include Atlanta, Washington, Philadelphia, Boston and Brooklyn, N.Y. The final shows will be in Providence, R.I., on May 7 and in Uniondale, N.Y., at the Nassau County Coliseum on May 21.
I guess all things come to an end, but the memories will last a lifetime. If you can make it to any of the shows, it may be worth checking out.
