The International Press Corps snapped this picture as we were discussing the finer things in life. Hal Guyon took the same identical picture.

About Me
- Bob Cline
- 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.

I am the International Press Corps, I had just returned from photographing the Prince William - Lady Kathrine Royal Wedding. Your`s and Sylvia`s was much nicer and the food was better !
Hal , Casey and I were wonderin' --- did you remember to bring us a piece of cake from Bill and Kate's wedding , like you promised ??
Bob- You look like you're about to slug the paparazzi. Calm down here; he's just doing his job.
Jim, I had them cut a piece for you and Casey. However, I got hungry on the drive home and ate it, Sorry.
Dave, You know it`s tough for us paparazzi guys to get pictures of celebrities like Bob. They get all angry and want to fight and throw stuff at you. I think maybe Bob needs some more security people, maybe a body guard !
Gentlemen,
I don't think it is anything as foul and ominous as wanting to slug a paparazzi. It looks more like Bobby is just making a point with some nitwit that a Hagenbeck Wallace cage wagon was in fact used May 13, 1936 and NOT May 14, 1936 as is often wrongly stated, and in fact Clyde Beatty's cat's only shit 3 times in the arena during a show and not 4 times as naysayer's quote.

Wade,
I know for a fact that Beatty`s cat only shit 3 times in the arena during the night show on May 13, 1936 ! I just can`t recall which cat it was ! LOL
Hal,
I respectfully disagree. According to my note's,( checked and verified by none other then Bobby Gibbs, who NEVER cut down a cherry tree, as did G. Washington) it was actually the 14th of 1936 and not the 13th in which a tiger(the ones with stripes) actuality did shit the 3 times as you state. Thank God for important circus record keeping, right Hal. LOL

Wade,
This is the verey reason that my O scale model circus is not copied after any particular show. I have heard some model builders say things like, "Well, The Cole Bros Palm Tree Tab was not painted that shade of red in 36, it was a lighter color". Although this past week at the Lot 2 gathering in Hershey I never heard anything like that, everyone was great and we had a relly good time.
