The circus is coming! The circus is coming! And you can win FREE tickets! There are several ways to get FREE tickets, with a giveaway right here on our blog OR by donating blood.

From the Press Release: Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey® Presents BARNUM 200SM rolls into the U.S. Bank Arena for 14 fantastic performances from March 11 to 20. This year’s show features the Flying Caceres as they attempt to complete the elusive quadruple somersault on the flying trapeze; the Puyang troupe from China will dazzle with a stunning display of dexterity as they bounce, flip, and twirl to new heights on a two-tiered trampoline; the impossible contortions of the body benders who fit three humans in a cube the size of a milk crate; the Duo Fusion hand balancers, a married pair of performers with a twist: the wife does the heavy lifting.
Arrive an hour before show time for the All Access Pre-show – FREE to all ticket holders – and meet performers and animals, and learn circus skills before the show even starts!
Tickets are available at the U.S. Bank Arena Box Office, at all Ticketmaster locations, online at www.ticketmaster.com or by phone at (513) 562-4949. For group sales, call (513) 421-4111 x136.

I want to go to the circus. I want to take my little ones to the circus, and it is around Eli's birthday and I think he would love it.

Jessica said...

I shared this with friends on facebook to come and try and win the tickets too.

I would love to win the tickets. I have three little ones with March birthdays. I think it would be a wonderful present to them. And I have loved the circus since I was a kid.

It's been a few years since I've been entertained by the circus. Plus, I can't wait to share cotton candy with my children.

Karen said...

I would love to win tickets to take my family! The circus is just magical and I know my kids would treasure the experience. Thanks for the contest!

We have never been to the circus, though both my children have been to circus camp. And circus lessons and our family life sometimes feels like a three ring circus, complete with clown car.

Being able to take my kids to the circus this year would be a wonderful special treat for them. The only way we can be able to go is by winning tickets. Thanks for the contest!

We'd love to win these tix! We haven't been since my 9 year old was really little... And for some reason he is convinced that I was one of the girls who rode the horses! Like PP, money is tight, winning tix would be the difference between going or not!!

I "like" the little things on FB. Thanks for the contest!

This a FAMILY AFFAIR. When the circus comes to town my entire family goes. This ONE BIG EVENT that my husband will go to. (He likes the circus better than Christmas). He's a bigger kid the the kids.

I would like to win some tickets because Dear Little Fred thinks it REAL BIG TOP FUN to watch Mommy completely wig out when the clowns get just a little toooooo close...because they know. And I'm sure little Miss Squish would love to see all the lights and the sounds!

I think Madeline would absolutely love this circus. She loves animals, especially elephants and tigers. I already "like" your facebook page, so I shared the link and told people to check out the link.

Would love to go the circus! Winning tickets is the only way to make it happen. Thanks for the contest!!!

We have never been to the circus. Besides the fact that it would be enormously funny to watch Rodney get creeped out by the clowns, I think the boys would love it. Thanks for the chance to win :)
