Not really sure that deserves an exclamation point. One might
accurately describe this circus as "ghetto." However, it was certainly
an entertaining experience, though not, I think, in quite the way the
owners/performers/animal handlers/acrobats intended.
Apparently, the ingredients for a Guatemalan circus include:
1. Two by fours and plastic chairs--for seating
2. An ostrich, a rabbit, and a parrot--for ambiance
3. One feedback-enhanced audio system.
4. One spongebob squarepants suit--for frightening the children
5. One strobe light
6. One trampoline
7. One fog machine
8. About fifteen seconds of fog
9. One dirty sheet, a pulley, an acrobat, and three guys to pull him
up--for the Cirque de Soleil portion of the show.
10. Two clown suits
11. A crossbow
12. One arrow (Literally. They had one arrow for the crossbow.)
13. Four balloons
14. One skimpily dressed woman--to hold the balloons in her teeth.
15. A mangy monkey
16. A pony
17. The theme song to "Hawaii Five O"
Add about fifty audience members and some deep-fried pasta. Mix well.
Serve.
