About Me

Name:
Location: GIBSONTON, FLORIDA, United States

Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

DISPLAY VI
CHESTER "BO-BO" BARNETT
I can still see him sitting on an elephant tub between the rings, bathed in blue spot lights, playing "Peg 'O My Heart", there's a memory that will never fade!

Someone's got Bobo's Firehouse props up on eBay right now.

I'd love o get them but the price is too rich for my blood at the moment and...tell me how I'm going to pull off a Firehouse Gag working by myself?

Ain't it the truth!

Once a producer wanted Dime to do the Baseball Game with three clowns.

It is a shame how they have wiped out clowns, I'm sure you've heard me say before, at one time Detroit used 35 "professional clowns".

I've been watching to see if they get any bids on those props, those leather helmets are worth a few bucks alone.
