Is the arena Adam's or the park's
And is the frame and the chain
link mesh aluminum or steel
(J C was bragging about Elaine's
prowess with an aluminum gun)
Where is this park
Thanks for the great pictures. I felt the same way leaving Marineland each summer. Just be glad you don't have any whinny boy's who want to stay with the friends they made. I love you both.
Wade
Chic,
It is his, one of many built by Carlos Farfan and family. The frame is aluminum and the mesh is stainless steel airplane cable interwoven. It is an interlocking diamond pattern design that Carlos made famous in the zoo world.
Wade
Very impressive thanks
What relationship is Carlos
perhaps brother of Armando Sr
And where is this park
the arena frame is actually stainless steal
The park is in the town of old forge NY. They have been doing circus shows here since the 50's. Among some of the circus acts they have had here include the walendas high wire,the Knocks sway poles and tarzan zerbini and his lions
Adam,
You are of course right. I was attempting to clear up that it was not chain link, and confused it with Chic's usage of aluminum. LOL
Wade
Adam, those are great photos and it is a pleasure to see you following so well in Wade's legacy.
Nice looking cats, nice looking equipment, and a handsome presenter and trainer. Good job young man.
Chic,
Carlos was Armando's brother.

I first met the Farfans in the
mid sixties when Carlos Armando
Anna & Alecia were on the Beatty
show with a high platform cycle
act but not with their flying
Nowadays Armando Jr (Tato) is a
featured attraction annually in
"Broadway Bares" in N Y where
I have been involved for many
years as a technical advisor
It is the top grossing benefit
for Broadway Cares
