The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus will end 'The Greatest Show on Earth' in May 2017 after 146 years of operation. Many causes are cited, among them film and TV icons such as Pamela Anderson as spokes persons for animal rights have for years spoken, tweeted and otherwise advanced the idea that the performances were cruel and the animals were treated poorly by their handlers. The Greatest Show on Earth is nearly sold out through May, so if you want to take a child to see the end of an American tradition, now is the time to buy tickets, which range from $70 to $500.
