As a child I looked forward to the annual arrival
of the Barnum & Bailey 3 Ring Circus at the Shrine
Mosque in Springfield, MO. Built in 1920, it was
the largest auditorium west of the Mississippi and
could seat 4,750 people in the main arena.
Just imagine..... all those people and 3 rings of
live entertainment. Elephants, tigers, bears,
clowns & high wire acts.
Those are wonderful childhood memories!!
