We took Jacob to the circus yesterday. He enjoyed it. We enjoyed it. I don't know if I would go again.

Including tax and fees, our tickets were over $25 each. Parking $6. The worst food I've ever had at an event like this - $14 (3 little corn dogs, a soggy pretzel, and 2 regular drinks). We also had fries, but I took those back when we realized that they were all mushy.

Did I mention the cotton candy that cost $10? Oh yeah, you get a goofy little hat with it.

The cost of items once you got inside were simply insane. In addition to the expensive cotton candy, they wanted $6 for a sno-cone.

I won't even go into the toys which started at around $6 for little trinkets and went up from there.

The greatest show on earth might also be the biggest rip-off on earth.

At least the elephants were good.
