Ringling Bros. Circus Prepares for Final Bow of ‘Greatest Show on Earth’
They've been having the Greatest Show on Earth for almost 150 years. Sunday will be their last show ever.
People can thank PETA for being partly responsible.
It irritates the crap out of me how much power and lack of remorse PETA has. They've destroyed a cultural icon and don't give a damn about it.

After nearly 150 years, the show will not go on for the iconic Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, which is performing its final act on Sunday.
Throughout its 146 year history, the massive, traveling circus elated crowds from small towns to big cities across America with its exotic animals, mile-long trains and death-defying feats — but not without courting its fair share of controversy.
As Ringling Bros. prepares to take its final bow before a sold-out crowd at Nassau Coliseum in the suburbs of New York City, circus performers and enthusiasts lamented the shutting down of "The Greatest Show on Earth." Yet animal rights activists who have sparred with Ringling for years said the end could not come soon enough.
People can thank PETA for being partly responsible.

For Ashley Byrne, associate director of campaigns for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA),the circus' final show "can't come soon enough."

There are simply too many other things vying for people's attention these days.

A fried of mine drove 4 hours to watch a show a couple of weeks ago, just because it was something he remembered from his childhood and wanted to see it one more time before it ended.
I haven't been to a circus since I was a child. I hate to see it end.
But liberals are ending everything that is right about our world, so it's not surprising.

Game of Thrones took its place.
But seriously, the circus is lame. Animal abuse aside, nobody wants to pay money to go watch a bunch of freaks do tricks.

PETA didn't do this. People just don't go anymore Bc: the animal abuse is now widely known, it's expensive, and there are better things to do

People have got to wake up and understand that it's not about a circus or statues.
It's about these assholes wanting to control everything.
