4:15

you know live in at the carnival yes and

4:20

you're in a different town every week and you

4:22

know you know get much time off. Foods

4:24

is wild yet since a similar kind of

4:26

interest in a similar to comedians will cause

4:28

you go to us town or a city

4:31

for a few days and then you hit

4:33

the road and you go to somewhere else.

4:35

yeah yeah I'm I'd say like that's like

4:55

I was brought him in know that I'm

4:57

5:01

so he was both for five years old.

5:03

came over on the boats Ellis Island. know

5:05

that and know. I. Was eighteen

5:07

years old and started selling point candy

5:10

like street fairs and little things like

5:12

that. and I'm. Jealous. Is kind

5:14

of how we started and got into it. I

5:16

actually still have some contain him seen that he

5:18

built and made like wooden frame and Light's yellow

5:20

belt driven like all those with the obvious it'll

5:23

work both to the now. They're like austerity metal

5:25

like you know industrial look at. well when you're

5:27

him as narrow pool make some yeah yes I'm

5:29

like that and but I'm that we have. Gotten

5:33

soft and as a when I realized this is

5:35

like one of these you're looking at Yeah so

5:37

we have a couple like that. As

5:39

a older those are kind the like dirt. Those

5:42

kind of seem like residents of ones

5:44

that tunneling by the house. Sir Grandfather

5:46

came over. And.

5:48

He started selling kind to rely on candy

5:51

of he someone cotton candy and then. Like

5:54

what he does gets a job. He stays

5:56

like he just kept doing it and then

5:58

you know he had kids and then my

6:01

father got into it and my father mother

6:03

started their own whole carnival business. Oh they

6:05

started by rides and games and food and

6:07

everything and now you know we had a

6:10

whole carnival called Candy on his amusements in

6:12

a way back before I was born. And

6:15

then when I was born late kind of

6:17

split up. And my dad

6:19

started working for bigger carnivals like the real

6:22

big ones. that did big the big county

6:24

fairs and state fairs and a lotta death

6:26

to started work for a company like that

6:28

and then went for and that of. Market

6:31

for are are not the biggest one in

6:33

New England called Fiesta shows and so he

6:35

worked for them up until he died and

6:37

so he was highlighted in a Big Shot

6:39

All day. He ran like food and games

6:41

and stuff for multi and was a lot

6:43

man so we're and so did you. What

6:45

of was one year for jobs in the

6:47

carnival? Yes yup. And so what's

6:49

it ever seen? A carnival and a fair

6:51

because we had the say or would com

6:54

a lot or yeah so the fair is

6:56

a same then he adds basically it's of

6:58

the fare as they have like the animals

7:00

and everything like that. like you have the

7:02

whole agricultural part of it you know and

7:05

sometimes they'll have like demolition derby that oh

7:07

yeah know that unlike the races in I'm.

7:09

On agricultural I suppose they had. golly yes,

7:12

all that stuff. So that's what kind of

7:14

distinguishes it from a fair to a carnival

7:16

in the kind of and long run in

7:18

like up where we are we have the

7:20

top sealed. Theres been roundly hundred fifty years

7:22

only that skill has a for each element

7:24

said him because that's also a whole development

7:26

And the rides in the game. Yeah that

7:29

sonos you would always like our we'd always

7:31

have to walk over to like.livestock me, sad

7:33

or whatever. like a bomb shelter wherever the

7:35

hell when it hits Higgs in it and

7:37

stuff and you have to go that air

7:39

and. All that pig races ever see those

7:41

yeah navigate kids are like you'd want my

7:43

replace with average of as it's pretty bad

7:46

8:12

Would split up into like three different section see

8:14

to do three cities at the same time. But.

8:16

The when we are to the fares we would

8:19

all get together and then the fights would break.

8:21

8:23

8:42

25:30

right here it's General Tom Thumb ah

25:32

Charles Sir Would Stretch was actually a relative

25:34

of Pt Barnum. when Barnum learned of

25:36

threatens dwarfism. He sensed opportunity

25:38

warmth of stress under his wing and

25:41

taught him how to sing, dance, and

25:43

impersonate famous historical figures while. Of

25:46

there was a loves the Boy oh

25:48

years loves to already I saw his

25:50

his appearances Grady Styles real life story.

25:52

Even more shocking Styles Condition was known

25:54

as at throat Deck. To. Lou.

25:58

Acts or Doc Doc to. The

26:00

only got it after that Billie

26:02

which causes hands and feet to

26:04

fuse in the laws of. The

26:08

condition ran and styles family. In fact

26:10

he was the sixth generation his family

26:12

to habits His father was already performing

26:14

in the circus and great he was

26:16

born. So he entered circus life early

26:19

as the lobster boy. Wow that was

26:21

as korea of hands and ass and

26:23

taken a guy. Wow.

26:25

Look At Him. And there's

26:27

a pitcher right there. Bearded lady and lobster boy.

26:29

they fell in love or less. As

26:32

romantic of Valentine's Day love

26:34

story on. While

26:36

with their kids would come on

26:38

Lighthouse? Yeah! The. Why lobsters?

26:40

Yeah, be interesting a meal pie be

26:43

some via use. See it like one

26:45

of those fancy omakase a places or

26:47

whatever you know. Our think

26:49

Benihana would be run and as it's probably not

26:51

either get you a cut of frickin hair loss

26:53

26:55

they have? Let me see a few more of

26:57

on. These. Are all the

26:59

freaks right? Yeah. Lionel the Lion

27:01

Face Man born Stephen Be Brow

27:04

Ski and Eighty Ninety One Poland

27:06

Lionel the lion faced man endured

27:08

a medical condition known as hyper

27:10

try co sis which is commonly

27:12

associated with werewolf syndrome for obvious

27:15

reasons and an odd twist of

27:17

fate. His mother was convinced the

27:19

condition was caused by her witnessing

27:21

his father being mauled by a

27:23

lie and when she was pregnant.

27:27

Still, that was a coincidence,

27:29

albeit crazy coincidence. While. I.

27:32

Would hurt him on able to handle his appearance

27:34

any longer. She put him up for adoption when

27:36

he was four years old. all. He

27:39

was adopted by German entertainer who put him

27:41

on of the circus. Heard him say be

27:43

made away from self With that we need

27:45

freak shows as true highway. These freaks can

27:48

make a living year they don't have and

27:50

and they had. I remember it was a

27:52

thing they had a dime. I.

27:55

Wanna think to the almost had one and it

27:57

sets. A dime. Museum can you

27:59

looked at. I

28:01

28:03

28:06

popular Coney Island amusement Park in York City.

28:08

Traveling Circus is inside says exhibits that. Featured.

28:11

People with physical differences with some sort

28:13

of the most prevalent attractions in the

28:15

nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. While die

28:17

museums often featured humans who were considered

28:19

different for the public to view and

28:21

experience, yet because I think they had

28:23

some places we could pay a dime

28:25

I guess is the name I'm assuming.

28:28

From eighteen forty until nineteen forty, freak shows

28:30

were at their height. His story is typically

28:32

marked eighteen forties the beginning of a freak

28:34

show era. The museum

28:36

contain many exhibits of historic artifacts and

28:39

gas. Oh, that was the year Pt

28:41

Barnum began the American Museum, a New

28:43

York City attraction that cost a dime.

28:45

To answer is the museum us as

28:48

many people who are considered to be

28:50

rarities worthy of exhibition. Wow see you

28:52

42:20

you know is just like times the remote control

42:22

a good with a joystick to get to go

42:24

in Iraq back and forth and to get enough

42:26

energy to get it up and around and you

42:29

42:31

hold it you just take it a little bit and wiggle

42:33

it so it go back and forth. Little bit is not

42:35

seek in the money out of their pockets. it all falls

42:37

down on the ones I'm there. was a bad seed, bad

42:39

seem to the obvious was the way to the end of

42:41

the ride. To. Go pick up

42:44

43:23

crazy. Is that when the War Saxons

43:25

43:27

was probably the worst.

43:29

Yes, We. Were on

43:31

and that's guy doesn't have one time and

43:33

little you know how the other saw the

43:35

bars or come down ahead let go long

43:37

ago it was in there but dictate your

43:39

changed in still too but she was flop

43:41

and around while was going around like them.

43:43

while she was upside down the sold the

43:45

boss came up and she fell into the

43:47

carton light skinned just bang bang drama was

43:50

spinning around and how and how long as

43:52

somebody's not doing well on a ride can

43:54

you. Shut It down forms does it

43:56

take a few seconds and I will take the

43:58

sometimes I have some take longer than. The to

44:00

slow down and come to a stop. Yeah.

44:03

I'm. In. There. Was one of the

44:05

freak out. I don't know if you've heard of the freak out.

44:08

As a freak out the as a pretty

44:10

dope right now. Now that's my favorite ride

44:12

I'd really at all I'm I'm is kind

44:14

of. I got an arm and it's got

44:16

these are the arms had come down. And.

44:19

Know Spain while it goes back and forth

44:21

and you get an awesome sense of weightlessness,

44:23

almost like does. Like

44:25

a roller coaster. I'd say like nut first drop

44:27

their it is. Who.

44:30

Has pretty cool looking. Yeah,

44:33

they didn't have the free gas. Oh

44:35

so that so that goes by a

44:38

pendulum and spends and spends. Yeah yeah.

44:41

And. Stood I remember

44:43

yeah we would get on s wings

44:45

one on was like a swing set

44:48

you to spaced out yeah and wenger

44:50

yeah and it would just a nudist

44:52

people would just the you would just

44:55

be will be vomiting like every will

44:57

be like standing watching. He was an

44:59

early come round. And. Just glass

45:01

eye out as though some up with that

45:03

bargain with that Thomas De Maiziere Ahmed yeah

45:05

was up. A lot of you got some

45:07

of those right thing and a lot of

45:09

users. We had one. I don't even remember

45:11

the name of their official name of the

45:13

ride but we called it the Pew Barrel

45:15

is what it's on. Seconded guys are many

45:17

consider other yet I was the name of

45:19

it up your bowels. This was like okay

45:21

I don't even know the official name and

45:23

if what what right cause the most vomit

45:25

you think the poop out really probably it

45:27

was that just looks like one of those

45:29

metal fifty five gallon drums. An old metal

45:32

like garbage can but barrels but was huge.

45:34

okay yeah it out and so's massive and

45:36

say was on its side and you go

45:38

when it had a sliding door and you

45:40

go when and and there were two seats.

45:43

That people could sit in circles seats and

45:45

those one like this while the floor rocked

45:48

back and forth like this and outside bowels

45:50

been like this with strobe lights go on

45:52

on of in what I am a horse

45:54

who's not going to puke Yes was pretty

45:57

well. As good stuff. So

46:00

we actually own one of those genealogy my mom and

46:02

dad owned a couple of I'm actually would have been

46:04

so they split up when I was like a year

46:06

old. so they ended up. I was too

46:08

young to kind of. Hub of the

46:10

business. So. My mom sold most of

46:12

the rides my time I was. being

46:15

a teenager. So besides some stuff city rights

46:17

and some for we'd gotten rid of of,

46:19

she'd gotten rid of all of major rise

46:21

that she had had yeah brevity up years

46:23

in cells. And

46:27

a what do you do when somethin What is

46:29

this? What is this here are that's looks like

46:31

the. Would. Rather thousand and one

46:33

nights on Not so what does versions called

46:36

What? That's what it was. Okay, yeah. It.

46:38

Looks like the whole thing is shaking so people

46:40

are going and jumping on the side like hobby.

46:43

I held it. yeah. Yeah,

46:46

oh yes, a carnival ride and Traverse

46:48

City, Michigan suddenly malfunctions. would you do

46:50

when this kind of thing happens? Will

46:53

ya do send it to after? But

46:55

how do you. I. Mean

46:57

people are scientists say the same from Fallen Over yeah

46:59

there are trying to get some weight on it. Is

47:02

that a realistic approach you think that? say

47:05

from solid. I mean I could be. Off.

47:09

Because. That was one of

47:11

the things you at the corner where you always

47:13

felt like. Nobody

47:15

had your back in a way

47:17

which is something exciting about it.

47:21

And deathly Alarming. Like isn't a

47:23

new cells I give you He

47:25

died. They wouldn't tell your parents.

47:27

The. I could and in we probably married

47:30

somebody. So bag cameo in a haunted

47:32

house. Probably some of those bodies in

47:34

there, probably kids at Disney Animated own

47:36

success and. Yells

47:38

at me. Also you though the carnival rides

47:40

or are as a lot safer than probably

47:43

music parts amusement parks? Really? yeah because they

47:45

get inspected every week so you get and

47:47

state inspectors every single week. Every time you

47:49

set up they have to come in and

47:51

legs and not you know. Give it a

47:53

go ahead so what's the worse? As if

47:55

you've ever seen out there. So.

47:58

That was. I mean, I didn't see. Could get hit

48:00

by the Sky master but that was probably

48:03

the worst although it one fair that I

48:05

was at a top sill fair I see

48:07

get the name of the ride but somebody

48:09

did come flying out of it but they

48:12

didn't die or I was. I can remember

48:14

the right. But.

48:16

They always say that he would die but

48:19

you never see us evil anymore. Yeah, That's

48:22

true, In. Our like the like

48:24

yeah it's yet Janet didn't die as I

48:26

go with him. Why isn't yeah it will

48:28

receive Here are some: Went to Florida she

48:31

retired yep he will yes he retired she's

48:33

a less This a specific issue if Apple

48:35

at it see said that's that's the thing

48:37

I think sometimes about that kind of stuff.

48:39

That seems like a little bit tricky. Man

48:42

we were like I was saying they i'm

54:06

Years. I was just like part of

54:08

the sir I was just completing the

54:10

circuit I was is probably powering a

54:12

fucking liar alternate on the line. sorry

54:14

on yes never had ever under a

54:16

data was unhealthy for me. Yes you

54:18

know because I was conducting electricity and

54:20

ah I'm thank god but yeah I

54:22

just remember be it was very. Very

54:25

it seemed like ah there were some

54:27

safety issues or would say I have

54:29

some will use the ivory. I've devlin

54:32

run into a few live rides before

54:34

the As procedure. I would that happen?

54:36

Yeah, what's happening? Me: Okay, yeah. So.

54:38

That's a real thing. Yeah, Because

54:41

I know my whole life was like I

54:43

know this happened Amazing. What how

54:45

does that happen to the so much wire and

54:47

going on in those things like all the lights

54:49

and everywhere and back then to is you know

54:52

now with L E D's they don't take his

54:54

once were back then that was really hot lights

54:56

and they took a lot more power and so

54:58

yeah big occurrence for hims ruined something to just

55:01

get caught what pin somewhere along the line and

55:03

next thing you know you're making that live. Sam.

55:06

God. Yeah that

55:08

thing really caught me up to speed

55:10

Boy a puck an Aids promised eight

55:13

months and I went home almost as

55:15

I god you seem different soon as

55:17

a mass the our group must as

55:19

soon as if err on the season

55:21

and cities around here as effects are

55:24

audience when I remember that he was

55:26

over and he had arrived just the

55:28

get and set up in the distance

55:30

and we come in they that. They'd.

55:33

Have somebody standing over there and fifty cents. he

55:36

could get over there and get sued, couple tickets

55:38

and go down on business and know the other

55:40

his people in know because if there was an

55:42

open yes but we knew this to be live

55:44

right there in so we'd all walker that air.

55:47

That's cool we aren't We never do anything like

55:49

that is pretty cool. Mance would have also something

55:51

in the some of the games via the games

55:53

the games are fun. Must give it up really

55:56

interesting. create a boost. he has a game. yeah

55:58

we are again booze. We own some. My

56:00

my brother still has. At. At

56:02

think he still has one or two. You

56:04

know, the definitely not as profitable as I

56:06

used to be. yes I'm but yeah, used

56:08

have all kinds of games. I mean. A

56:11

lot of them are legal now. You. Know maybe

56:13

I should drilling yeah maybe I should join

56:15

some like says something someone to spill secrets

56:17

like them the magician telling the secrets of

56:19

the about the games is that in one

56:21

of with some on non does get I

56:23

know who I am now and a luxury

56:25

swell I've yet because I know that was

56:27

videos that cannot years ago about like exposing

56:29

all the games without really I didn't like

56:31

that sits I knew. That.

56:35

You pretty much work and a we're not

56:37

there some that you are not going away

56:39

unless they want you to win. Ah, See.

56:42

If they gotta. if you, if they get enough

56:44

money are you. And they got a good tip

56:46

going as a big crowd of you're in a

56:48

wheelchair or some probably year maybe as doll depends

56:50

on how much money spent. and

56:52

then like if they got a nice crowd and they

56:54

want to keep deaths and a lot of like of

56:56

the crowd is really light a been there a while.

56:59

And. They really want to see that dude when

57:01

and he spent enough money and you know

57:03

you could get now you get rid have

57:05

that dude, wins everybody and stop playing. yeah

57:07

you know. Ah so the part of it

57:09

is some strategy get lost as exactly what

57:12

was one of the games that was the

57:14

toughest game, the when probably the toughest. So

57:16

when like. Legitimately.

57:19

Will. So those some that just can't be one

57:21

okay of the okay so take me like

57:23

what is one of them. So like the

57:25

cover, the red spot. You. Guys have

57:28

a have that one cove the Red

57:30

Sox I would be our good real

57:32

grab a big red circle good you

57:35

get like little desk this yet could

57:37

not be one legally. ah they would

57:39

be one. That could be one

57:41

on that. The guy would show you how to do

57:43

it. On to down can be one of us and

57:45

he would always use that one and I worked at

57:47

game before so I know how it's done. And

57:51

then you have all the other ones,

57:53

the circles and to slightly too big

57:55

to be completely covered. Oh set of

57:57

a circle. The Up: There is

57:59

ah com. The Spot. Okay,

58:02

so you see how that once

58:04

covered all down there with the

58:06

five. this is completely covered. so

58:08

sometimes those red circles i just

58:10

slightly too big, where it's mathematically

58:12

impossible to cover and all. Do

58:16

the saddest part. I just remember this some

58:18

my brother use that the older brother you

58:20

know and like he like was Hannah win

58:22

a game and new in and much money

58:24

58:26

win and like. And he knew

58:28

he exits. Hard to be a little bit thing.

58:30

I gotta win this are better watch me you

58:32

know And he fucking dead and when I could

58:34

feel it does break as fuck And are all

58:37

58:45

lot of everything. as illustrated. A kid in

1:02:00

be apple ahem brow as I agree

1:02:02

I in his yeah least guess it's

1:02:04

read is that added. While

1:02:07

yeah it's that was crazy though. Games are

1:02:09

legal now though up there was as you're

1:02:11

expecting the kids when a few things that

1:02:13

the kids have a good time said grub

1:02:15

home. I just didn't her. It just didn't

1:02:17

hurt that Weights Group Homes has. he attended

1:02:19

a Man's Has a carnival run by New

1:02:21

Hampshire based Fiesta. So many of them as

1:02:24

as it is had. So we worked last

1:02:26

and wanted to win an X Box connect

1:02:28

at a game called Tubs of Fossil. Yeah

1:02:30

I'll tell you about that one where contest

1:02:32

as toss balls and what's her off ain't

1:02:34

happening. It is. It's what is it. So

1:02:36

the bustle basket. That's what it is. The tub,

1:02:38

the fund so they take those member those old

1:02:40

apple bustle baskets oh yes I remember that be

1:02:43

up on the side yeah like at an angle

1:02:45

com yeah the dangle kind and get tossed a

1:02:47

softball in their yes yes. There.

1:02:49

It is. Or this Not get

1:02:51

it right here. Yeah.

1:02:58

Yeah, so there's a split a trip to it. You

1:03:00

see how he's doing it. You gotta give it a

1:03:02

spin and it's gotta hit right on the edge. I

1:03:04

say soda like it'll. Kind of like

1:03:06

uses momentum stay in this and they use in

1:03:09

plastic ones to the i don't know I go

1:03:11

to the bush about did he find a bushel

1:03:13

basket into might be generous Hard when we're talking

1:03:15

about the it's the same game but the bush

1:03:17

Those who made a that would in ones like

1:03:20

the original apple whistle baskets yes to take me

1:03:22

through is so would the problems with only but

1:03:24

they weren't like an angle right that same same

1:03:26

same thing is that with the plastic ones acceptable

1:03:28

would an arm and they just won't stay in

1:03:31

the of the softball so light and bouncy. and

1:03:33

the back of those basket said just so bouncy

1:03:35

as well. That they would

1:03:37

just bounce out. You can't get the ball

1:03:39

to say yeah, it's it's. really. I

1:03:42

mean if you know it's rec and you'd like

1:03:44

they were doing of beauty get the right back

1:03:46

spin on it and hit it right at the

1:03:48

edge. You to get it to stay in the

1:03:50

about how they get people so easily his bills.

1:03:52

The guy sitting in it's in the booth can

1:03:54

easily tossed the ball in there and from his

1:03:56

angle it'll easily go in there and stay in

1:03:59

there and then you. The other ball to them

1:04:01

the guy in be like look at how easy it

1:04:03

is not throw the ball in their give a freeze

1:04:05

his a free sites see how easy it is and

o'clock on a Sunday night. Know you've got to

1:17:37

tear down side to the next location, start setting

the main carnival owner that own like the

1:17:56

like Cps the shows he owns all the

1:17:58

rides mostly. And. Sometimes.

1:18:01

Some of the games and food but you

1:18:03

would have other families that own like you

1:18:05

1:18:07

know james or whole bunch of food stands

1:18:09

and you would and. With. The games.

bunch of different games and they would join up

1:18:16

with the carnival and you would tour with that

1:18:18

carnival for the year. Okay so as a lot

1:18:21

of like smaller family businesses would join up under

1:32:39

was all my siblings were much older than me.

1:32:42

And so yeah, we had some out there

1:32:44

and something. Osama. I

1:32:47

guess is some for reasons of it but

1:32:49

not really. I mean now. They

1:32:51

have a lot of Vom Mexicans and

1:32:53

South Africans. Oh really yeah that's pretty

1:32:55

much was one of the ride so

1:32:57

why would say like how of thing

1:32:59

says yes since the past and now

1:33:01

well. It was hard find

1:33:03

and I think really good rides help so

1:33:06

they I don't know why it was Mexico

1:33:08

and South South Africa. I don't know why

1:33:10

those two countries have picked but apparently it

1:33:12

sold to him that you're going to go

1:33:14

on a work and make a scene. You

1:33:16

get to see the United States and were

1:33:18

can make money while you're at it in

1:33:20

which is all bullshit is. using.

1:33:22

The Carnival. And you're at that

1:33:24

carnivals. It doesn't look any different. Wherever you

1:33:27

go, you just as the same lot. So.

1:33:29

You know you're not seen anything different. Would

1:33:31

1:33:40

will pour. Yeah. Laughs was not

1:33:43

a big moneymaker now and my parents were

1:33:45

divorced so like they were split. no money.

1:33:47

No. I don't know or like when

1:33:50

to clean a stands and put know quality food.

1:37:22

You know you'd be like a families running like

1:37:24

Ed as her family own like we do the

1:37:27

games are we do the rally the we do

1:37:29

the food and right of the right games as

1:37:31

a V some organization or that. yeah they would

1:37:33

be multiple families they would be like you know

1:37:35

sometimes ten twelve different families out there. yeah all

1:37:38

own and I mean sometimes you would have one

1:37:40

guy that just don't is one game and he

1:37:42

would travel everywhere with you. get with you is

1:37:44

if one in his one game nobody owns. Was

1:37:48

there another world of Carney where it was like

1:37:50

somebody owned all of it and they were just

1:37:53

hire all the people. He has become

1:37:55

an that know. How. It is. Yeah, It's

1:37:57

definitely is. What Is it?

1:38:00

Like about that. What is it that makes you

1:38:02

will go to a carnival you think are good

1:38:04

1:38:07

They. Want to go on rides here? And

1:38:10

want have some fun than one escape. We need

1:38:12

more stay busy these days. Yeah it was

1:38:14

fine. classroom memory was five yeah that was

1:38:16

a thing like it was crazy and stuff

1:38:18

and we have some crazy stories but we

1:38:20

always wanted to make sure like we had

1:38:22

wanted to provide a good time for the

1:38:24

people to our yeah I did the rides

1:38:26

definitely you know our I mean the games

1:38:28

are hustle and some age instead take it

1:38:30

too far in I agree like those people

1:38:32

that were get robbed of their life savings

1:38:34

like to take into too far less saddam.

1:38:37

For. The most part likes you do want to

1:38:39

be, would have a good time and come back

1:38:41

the next day and bring more people and any

1:38:43

animals ever get loose out there when you go.

1:38:45

Man of one time we let it sickened guess

1:38:47

we we stole a chicken or roost and we

1:38:49

put it up in the doghouse of the music

1:38:52

fest zone. The next day they came to work.

1:38:54

there was a mild booster up in the up

1:38:56

in the doghouse in the doghouse as the control

1:38:58

room. we run the right. Ah nice. And the

1:39:00

music fest is the one where like they go

1:39:02

around it's like they're you're in a car that

1:39:04

kind of swings that it goes around exists big

1:39:07

that. Dot. Not a track but it's counters

1:39:09

on an arm so they kind of the

1:39:11

car swing and they swing around and they're

1:39:13

playing like crazy. Music aware yeah I remember

1:39:16

now and then said you guys ready to

1:39:18

go backwards Yeah, let's go backwards. This time

1:39:20

there it is music fast. He adds a.

1:39:23

God. as her eyes are such a big

1:39:26

thing or have we put we put a

1:39:28

chicken in the doghouse one time for the

1:39:30

houses are I guess it when the showed

1:39:32

up to access a yacht. yeah because I'm

1:39:34

or without a lady just brought a box

1:39:36

a cats and fuckin does does that bits

1:39:38

out at the fair. That's. A good

1:39:40

place to get rid of them. Yeah I think that

1:39:42

was like some of the Va that was decide pupil

1:39:45

the had extra animals or whatever and are like we're

1:39:47

gonna bring him up here because the new people be

1:39:49

appear. And. and

1:39:51

they want a cat they got it or whatever

1:39:53

but yeah there was always some weird shit like

1:39:56

that going on any love stories over the years

1:39:58

you see where carnies met each other Yeah,

1:40:00

I met, I mean, back

1:40:02

in the day, that's the only place I really met.

1:40:05

I mean, my friend April, who I

1:40:07

was with for almost 10 years

1:40:09

or something, we were 16, 17 when we hooked

1:40:13

up. You all met at a carnival?

1:40:15

Yeah, she worked for somebody and I was working out

1:40:17

there and she worked for a friend of mine, another

1:40:19

family. Let me dart that balloon, huh? She

1:40:21

was actually pregnant when we hooked up already too. Really?

1:40:24

Yeah. Wow, that seems illegal.

1:40:26

Yeah, it's definitely, I mean... That's crazy in the

1:40:28

eye of the god, but I don't know. We're

1:40:30

still friends, that I still, I mean, Rayquan, her

1:40:32

son works for me now. Yeah, really? Yeah, her

1:40:34

son works for me. Really? Yeah.

1:40:37

So wow, that's love, man. Yeah, well, that's the thing. We're

1:40:39

still best friends, you know? Oh, really? Yeah,

1:40:42

we're not together, obviously, but yeah, we're best friends still and... Damn.

1:40:46

So, yeah, we had some... Love can

1:40:48

happen out there, huh? I think my nephew met his wife

1:40:50

out there. He just got married a year or two ago.

1:40:53

He met her out there. Yeah. She

1:40:55

was South African. I think she came over from

1:40:57

that whole... When

1:40:59

they brought all... Because they keep bringing more South Africans

1:41:01

over every year. Why? Just for

1:41:04

that work and vacation they sell them. People think

1:41:06

that they're going to come to America and make a lot of

1:41:08

money and travel and see the country. But are they bummed out

1:41:10

when they get here or no? Most of them are. They

1:41:12

are? They're already here. They're already here. Some of

1:41:15

them pay to go back home. Like, you've got to like...

1:41:18

But some of them love it and some of them end up rising

1:41:20

up and getting positions of power too. Yeah.

1:41:23

So, it goes both ways. Some of them hated it. Some

1:41:26

of them didn't mind it and some of them loved it. Oh,

1:41:28

yeah. Mexicans, I don't know because they

1:41:31

all spoke Mexican. I couldn't figure it out if they liked it or not.

1:41:34

Yeah, I think Mexican people adjust

1:41:36

pretty well. Yeah. They

1:41:38

just adjust well to most things, you know?

1:41:40

I would like to be Mexican. That would

1:41:42

be fun. Oh, yeah. I

1:41:44

think I would be... I don't know if I

1:41:46

would be good at it, but I would be... I know

1:41:48

I would try my best, but I don't know. I don't

1:41:51

know. I don't know. Yeah. Well,

1:41:53

my girlfriend's half Mexican. Really? Yeah.

1:41:56

Yeah. Does that part of her seem

1:41:58

good? I love it. Yeah. Yeah, I would just

1:42:00

we'll see what happens, but I anyway that's like a bigger

1:42:03

conversation But what about like gypsies? Did

1:42:05

y'all ever run across those types of oh yeah? We

1:42:07

had some just talking about Yeah,

1:42:09

man. We had some that did like

1:42:11

the psychic readings and stuff like that.

1:42:13

Yeah Yeah, there's a lot of motions.

1:42:15

Yeah, we didn't see him much really

1:42:17

they were gypsies So they were yeah,

1:42:19

they were travelers like cuz normally like

1:42:21

if you wanted to do the big

1:42:23

fares You would have to like as a

1:42:25

like if you were a gypsy that just wanted to come in and do it

1:42:28

Like an ass family or different families that were out

1:42:30

there They would make you do the spring season with

1:42:32

them And you had to do all the shit spots

1:42:34

if you wanted to get the good spots. You know

1:42:36

what I mean? Oh, yeah, it's just like comedy. Yeah,

1:42:39

so but I don't know how the gypsies got away with

1:42:41

it Maybe just cuz like what do you mean?

1:42:43

He got away with it? They would do what they wouldn't have to do

1:42:45

the shit spots sometimes you would just see

1:42:47

a gypsy like a psychic reader or somebody that did

1:42:49

like the palm reading or the Cards

1:42:52

and you would only see him at like some

1:42:54

of some of the big fares They wouldn't have

1:42:56

to do like all the shit. Oh, they didn't

1:42:58

have to play the smaller ones in this. Yeah,

1:43:00

once you didn't love Yeah, they were funny man,

1:43:02

and you'd walk by like cuz I never went

1:43:04

into him but she would always like come on

1:43:06

in I don't know and it they're

1:43:08

so Perceptive because they would

1:43:10

try to get you to think that they

1:43:12

were being psychic or they knew something But

1:43:14

they're just watching what's going on out in

1:43:16

the carnival and they're like, oh, there's gonna

1:43:18

1:43:22

1:43:31

I mean he might not admit it, but I

1:43:33

think he is but I don't know if he

1:43:35

1:45:14

it means bus and at

1:45:16

our mad at sick. So

1:45:19

how do you set the carnival down and move

1:45:21

it to the next place? What's that like? What's

1:45:24

the breakdown like in Sienna? When.

1:45:26

You close in age away for the big gondola will to

1:45:28

close down. that's how you know your closed. What is the

1:45:30

big gondola with big ferris wheel? the diverse will you a

1:45:32

for the lights to go off of that brings you closer

1:45:34

when you know it's side of the clothes and he closed

1:45:36

down. And not depending on what

1:45:39

you ran. On games are

1:45:41

really easy to tear down. You

1:45:43

know, The. Hardest thing was put on the hits

1:45:45

after they took a game away to the Hedge has

1:45:48

come off them. simple. The trailer that portrayal of i

1:45:50

gotta take those Aussie to put all the games but

1:45:52

I'm up to each other. Make the midway way I'm

1:45:54

We use a make the me where would he me

1:45:56

and you put on one into the truck when you

1:45:58

put you know when you go. Into the middle

1:46:00

the midway is like oh where are the games

1:46:02

in the food are drawl able to but up

1:46:05

against each other flat because you take the heads

1:46:07

off with that. That goes on to the that

1:46:09

you hook the fuck up to be back to

1:46:11

fuck up to the hell yes and so that

1:46:13

comes off and that's probably the hardest part for

1:46:15

like turn down a game aka is taken that

1:46:18

on him and how ya travel on the how

1:46:20

does it I'll move out so it's up to

1:46:22

his family. They usually have trucks that put that

1:46:24

pull their stuff and somebody that works for and

1:46:26

usually will be a driver to. They might have

1:46:28

a couple drivers I'm or. You might hire a

1:46:31

trucking company to come in employer stuff arm those

1:46:33

the carnival that like the carnival itself day own

1:46:35

big trucks that pull their stuff and they also

1:46:37

1:48:25

Ago Transformers: how hard is debris dunno carnival

1:48:27

1:48:29

a matter of and depends. I mean you

1:48:32

did movie get it done fairly fast you

1:48:34

know sometimes. You can be to

1:48:36

have. Everything done in like a

1:48:38

good six hours or so. Loud

1:48:41

music in I do. They travel at

1:48:43

night easier wheels it up and yeah

1:48:45

yeah because usually close Sunday nights and

1:48:47

so you're done and depending on how

1:48:49

late you clothes sometimes of close early.

1:48:54

Some. Sunday so they do the yard the bracelet.

1:48:56

Sweet by bracelet you can ride on the rise

1:48:58

all day nice and so when they do that

1:49:00

if you're make money stay open lane it doesn't

1:49:02

want to in want to close on people is

1:49:04

what we call it. Oh yes as evil. So

1:49:06

there. Once. Was one

1:49:08

of the game we supply or you like put

1:49:11

the slide the money and it was the A

1:49:13

you pay get this thing of coins the all

1:49:15

yeah in a would put all the splashdown is

1:49:17

one of the woods. Recall that year would move

1:49:19

the coins failed and sometimes you would push a

1:49:22

little like at the an actual quarter would be

1:49:24

on top of a push a quarter offer a

1:49:26

domino's quarters and ours are you to be at

1:49:28

was there was some times depending on the state

1:49:30

sometimes yeah these coins sometimes scores and mean you

1:49:33

can use quarters. Yes and so but

1:49:35

those are a hustle to are they? yeah

1:49:37

Cause there's a couple different ways they hustled

1:49:39

that sometimes they would be are something. Under.

1:49:42

The quarters of the coin says like this triangle

1:49:45

right at the front lip so when they're pushing

1:49:47

a was side was enough he wants to on

1:49:49

the sides as a smash stance on the size.

1:49:51

Did you notice before that as an out of

1:49:54

bounds. So. The coins can put out

1:49:56

into the out amounts so you would put

1:49:58

a lot of weight and the. Middle.

1:50:01

So. Instead of pushing forward it

1:50:03

would push to the sides. yet because they could fall

1:50:05

of two. The saga is it fell off the middle.

1:50:08

You got You got it right. But of the full

1:50:10

sized house gets it's ah yeah that would arise air

1:50:12

and so the more weight you put in the front.

1:50:15

The more gonna push to the sides. Sometimes.

1:50:20

People do that. Sit down, Not oh
