Happy First of May!!!

May first is the traditional day for circuses to pull their wagons out of winter quarters and head out on their route for the year. Circus perfomers who are on the road for the first time, are called "First of May". Usually spoken with the same inflection of freshman, or noob.

So to all circus perfomers past, present, and future. I wish you a happy First of May! Where's the party?

To all the greats who have gone before us..





Happy First of May.
