The Missus and I went to the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus at the Garden on Friday.

Two observations:

1) It may not actually be The Greatest Show on Earth, but it’ll do until I can afford Cirque du Soleil.

2) The audience was the nicest, most racially diverse crowd I’ve seen around Boston in a long time.

Sure seems The Greatest Show on Earth brings out the best in people.

P.S. The “seven speeding [motorcycle] riders in the Globe of Steel” is a corker.
