posticon How many 'Working' Sideshows are out there?


I am curious to discover how many sideshow attractions are travelling with carnivals anymore.

This can be 'Single-O-Attractions', Grind Shows, 10 in 1's and Freakshows...it would be interesting to know how many are left in the world. This is one side of the Sideshow world that is slowly dying. I'm hoping that there are more than 5. emoticon

I'd be curious to know the exact answer to this...though in a way I don't quite want to; I'd like to believe there are more than I could ever know. But 5? Including single o's? There's more than that for sure. Jack Constantine alone has 2 or 3 each out of Angel the Snake Girl, Worlds Smallest Woman, Worlds Smallest Horse, plus his Museum of World Oddities and an occasional Giant Rat. There's a giant horse, a couple giant pigs, a couple freak animal shows... and these are just regulars I see in the nyc area. I know there are more out there, just not sure how many?

Hell-O Rick jr!

I am very glad that you are prospering in this industry also! Its wonderful to have you on board...it sounds like you have your hands full!
If you have any pics of your shows...I would love you to share them with everyone on our forum, as I have stated...there aren't that many of us out there anymore and it would be great to keep the excitement for this form of entertainment ALIVE.
I look froward to hearing more from you in the future!


Your fiend,
