Visit iGotClowned.com to throw a virtual pie in the face to your friends and family!

Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® is roaring into town with Barnum’s FUNundrum, a celebration of P. T. Barnum so big, it is an event 200 years in the making! From the moment that you arrive, the momentum explodes as The Greatest Show On Earth® comes to life in a way that can only be inspired by the greatest showman who ever lived.
At Barnum’s FUNundrum, the funtastic and funbelieveable experience answers the conundrum. Johnathan Lee Iverson dons the iconic top hat once again to become the Ringmaster of a production that celebrates the extraordinary legacy of the greatest showman on earth!
And in following the tradition of P.T. Barnum’s pursuit for global and fascinating talent, Jonathan, who was the first African American Ringmaster, as well as the youngest Ringmaster to ever welcome Children of All Ages to The Greatest Show On Earth, is a multi-talented performer and exceptional vocalist.Families of all ages are encouraged to hop aboard and go on an unbelievable excursion that brings together performers and characters from exotic countries all over the world - even from places for which there are no geographic borders.
From the moment that audience members arrive, the momentum explodes as The Greatest Show On Earth® comes to life in a way that can only be inspired by the greatest showman who ever lived, PT Barnum.
With the Spectrum slated for demolition this April, the Greatest Show on Earth, which had performed in the Spectrum for 41 of the arena's 42 years, will headline the Wachovia Center for the first time since June of 1997.
This is also the first time the Circus, which has traditionally performed in Philadelphia in the spring, will visit the City of Brotherly Love in February.
The Philadelphia Flyers and the National Hockey League will be taking a Winter Olympic break in February which enables the Circus to perform at the Wachovia Center from February 24 through 28.
Circus fans can arrive one hour before show time for the interactive All Access Pre-show to learn circus skills, become CircusFit®, meet Ringling Bros. performers and get an up-close look at the animal stars of The Greatest Show On Earth® – FREE to all ticket holders!
Circus fans can also visit the Animal Open House SM and discover the efforts that Ringling Bros. makes to save the endangered Asian elephant at the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Center for Elephant Conservation®.
