    The Greatest Show on Earth

    by Elemscorpio on 1/5/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    We had a great time at the circus. The performers(human and animal) were great! It kept the adults and kids entertained. I went in knowing that food would be expensive, so I didn't flinch when paying $8 for popcorn and $5 for a soda.

    built to amazing dissapointment !!!!!!!

    by lmw5852 on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    I have been to several Ringling Bros. and Barnum Bailey circus events. This was the most disappointing show I have been to. This was Christmas gift tickets for my granddaughters, daughter and I to go to and have good quality time together as well as an enjoyable time. My granddaughters even said this show was not good, their ages 12 and 14. I don't know if there are new owners or what has happened but I don't care if we ever come back. When the show ended my daughter age 34 said what happened to the flying trapeze act? My response, I don't know. Since when is there a circus without a flying trapeze act. The motorcycle act that you have had several times that we looked forward to was not there. The dog act just ok, if not for the tiny black puppy that was so cute it would not have been very good. The quality of the show altogether just was not as it should have been. This was the most boring circus I have ever been to. We were there on opening night but I don't feel that should have anything to do with the show.

    Horrible

    by Anonymous on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    This show lacked entertainment. Horrible, so bad we left early. Sold out show and it was terrible. Unless your seated in the first section you wont be tended to. They dont cater to anyone but the first few rows

    Enjoyable

    by Imnemt on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    It was good, but not as good as previous. Would love to see more animal acts and less acrobats.

    IT IS "The Greatest Show On Earth"

    by cobltbl on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    A super family experience. My grandson of 9 as well as my husband of 70 were all smiles from the preshow up close with the animals and stars to the very end! The ringmaster was excellent. The acrobats and the clowns were the best! The colorful costumes, the music everything was super!

    Amazing performance

    by AlexsDad on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    My daughter and I LOVED the new circus show. We haven't been in a long time because the shows had gotten boring and predictable. This new show was nothing like that. The constant action, the great music and costumes and a stellar array of performers made this an event to remember.

    Really Busy

    by TheCarny on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    There was never a dull moment. You were kept watching every second. The story line was a little thin. The other Cirque in Saint Petersburg was more interesting. But still --you have to see this show.

    Last year was better

    by mnm4ever on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    Not that it wasn't a good show, but it wasn't as good as last year. Way too much singing and dancing, and not enough thrilling acts. The elephant act was the best by far, high wire act was almost non-existant this year, and pretty much the rest of the show was non-stop clowns and dancing.

    Best year yet

    by MsLadyDon on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    My family attends the circus every year. This was the first year for my 11month old son. My oldest is 18. This years event was entertaining for all ages. We loved the music choices, and theme was fun and creative. Even my 11 month old watched in amazement. This was our first year visiting the pre show. We will never miss it again.

    Reactions were precious!

    by Twinsintow on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    We took our grandkids, (5 years old twins) and it was their first time seeing a circus. Their reactions were so perfect - just we had hoped for. I personally was a little disappointed in the trapeze performance (not nearly enough of it) and also missed seeing the car stuffed full of clowns, which I had told them I was sure they would see. But the loved everything, even though they did say it was "too long". It would be great if it could start a little earlier. There were many small children being carried out asleep, especially in the second half. Our twins' bedtime is actually the time the circus started, and even though they took a nap, and did stay awake, it was a long night for them. But the memories were precious!. Circuses, afterall, are sort of a rite of passage for a child. Oh, they did say they thought it would be in a tent, but I guess that is modern circus, and they were fine with it.

    amazing athletes

    by tbforum on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    the show overall was quite entertaining. the animal acts were quite enjoyable, the highwire act was simply amazing. there was one act in particular which i dont recall what the ringmaster called them, but it was 2 teams of 1 man/1 woman each and they performed on the small round ring in the center. they did balancing stunts with only their bodies - it was very impressive. we have gone to the circus now 2 years in a row and will continue to attend on an annual basis. the tampa bay times forum is easy access, and parking was fine also. very well organized.

    Amazing Circus

    by Rileyjake on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    The acts were great. Especially the high wire acts and the animal acts. The event was a little too long. You could cut out some of the singing and dancing and have more acts and the tumbling at the end was kind of ordinary. The elephants were awesome. Clown acts were a little boring. My family DID NOT like the clown magic act where they threw the rabbits around! Please change that!!

    Ringling Bros was very disappointing

    by puremom on 1/4/13Tampa Bay Times Forum - Tampa

    The Ringling Bros circus was very disappointing. Definitely not the 3 ring circus that I remembered as a child and wanted my children to experience. We sat in the very first row, so the tickets were great. There was however, only one ring and another area that was created on the side to give the appearance of constant activity. The animals were not as involved as in previous years, therefore there was just a lot of other things that I would refer to as fillers. It was not "The Greatest Show on Earth" that I fell in love with as a child, sorry to say.

    The RBBBC is an amazing show. The elephants are a highlight.
