2009 Cole Bros. Circus
Personally, I thought this was the lamest start to any show. The lady walks out with the flag and just stood there. The flag wasn't held high or tipped. When the Star Spangled Banner was over, she just walked away. All due credit goes to the young lady singing who has a wonderful voice. Chris Conners is seen in the background.
I performed from 1973 to 1995 with a couple years off in between. I did an aerial cradle act for three years, low wire as a clown, trained llamas, ponies, then lions and tigers for 15 years. I am now a firefighter, a member of the Circus Historical Society and an author of several circus and carnival related subjects.
