First off, NO POLLS on this thread 
I promise.
I went to the circus today, dropped $70, and my wife, daughter and I had a good time. It was great to see my daughter laugh like that and enjoy herself the way she did.
Is this wrong of me? ...
There was a guy doing the wheel thing, where he walks on the outside of this wheel as it goes 60 feet (or more) in the air. The whole time I was watching, my heart was beating pretty hard, as I was afraid he would plummet to his certain death. I was scared for him... I did not want to see him get injured.
Now...
When the chick was in the cage with 6 tigers, I kinda wanted the tigers to flip out on her and maul her. No joke. I don't know why I did, but I did.

I think I was rooting more for the tigers, than against her. I think that it just means, psychologically, that I belong in PETA.

In all seriousness, I don't give a shit. I don't know for a fact that no one does. Maybe someone does. And if the chick was fat and/or ugly, it is only natural to want to see her eaten by tigers.

Hell no it's not fucked up. If the animals don't win every once in a while people will stop going to events like that. I mean how lame is it if you always know the humans will win? Christ, just stay home and watch television then. If there is a chance to see a wild animal mauling, I want first row seats even if I have to pay more for them. Thus furthering the recovery from this recession we find ourselves in.
I'll take the tigers -1 if possible.
$70 to see your daughter smile and laugh..money well spent.

The tigers and gravity = The Washington Generals unless there is some blood shed.

Kinda screwed up thinking...but I don't judge. I've probably thought way worse stuff during my lifetime.
As a side note...I don't think I'll ever be able to take my kids to the circus. Clowns freak me out...and I have trouble even looking at them without almost losing my shit.

Cats.
I am afraid of heights. Add in centrifugal motion, and I'm terrified.

So a high wire act from you is out of the question???? Remember, some "cats" play with their mice a long time before lights out.
Also I heard clowns only get you when your asleep..................

When I was 4-5 years old "1980-1981" we went to the circus in Charleston, WV and a guy was shot out of a cannon then missed the net.ernest_t_bass wrote: There was a guy doing the wheel thing, where he walks on the outside of this wheel as it goes 60 feet (or more) in the air.

Women are like the circus.
They get bigger and better every year.
