I was on Circus Kirk when I heard about the Royal Ranch Wild West. We were both traveling the east coast. I never got to see the show but everything I heard about it said it was a first class operation. Great Circus Performers, wild west stars and even an elephant. Didn't they use the wild west canopy sytle instead of a circus tent?
ReplyDeleteBob the show was under a beautiful big top. Probably an 80 round, the first years it was out. And the last couple of years it was under a canopy or blue sky. The seat wagons were great and Ozzie always had a decent performance.
