    Citing high operating costs and declining ticket sales the circus is closing. I always felt bad for the animals, but man no more circus? Sad really. Who doesn't remember going to the circus when they were kids?

    "The Ringling Bros. circus is closing down after more than 100 years in operation, according to a press release from Feld Entertainment, which has owned the circus for the last 50 years."

    So my question is, will the Harlem Globetrotters be next?

    Quoted from volcanodiver:

    Elephants have approximately 65 gallons of blood.

    I never understood why some vampires who are conflicted with drinking blood from humans and turn to rats to survive just don't go to Africa and feast on 65 galloons of blood from an elephant.

    And back to the circus topic......wonder what those performers whose family legacy dates back almost 100 years are now going to do? Another circus in Europe?
