RBBB Venice Qtrs. 1974 #4


Everything went without a hitch and now it's "Miller time". We had to sit around for a few hours waiting for an engine and crew to move us 150 miles up to Davenport, Fl. then the next morning we made the five mile march to the park still under construction.

So, today's quiz is, how many people in this picture can you identify? Five of them worked for me and the others just along for the trip
The only clue is that the dog's name was "Clarence".

I finally made it big time! I'm on your web blog!LOL! I see on the rail at the top Donald Bale, Me, Gary Jacobson. Was the Mexican that came with you named Megal? I'm not sure if Scott Riddle is who you are looking at? I don't remember him until Circus World later but I could be wrong?? Thanks, Gary P.S. I look as if I should have been dewormed! Tall and skinny!

That's "Cowboy Ralph" Schappacher on the rail with you, Gary and Donnie.
At left is Dave Mullaney fron the Red Show.
You're right, that's Scott Riddle I'm talking to and behind me is Bucky Steele and Johnny Walker.
At right is Miguel Vargas whose kids later had a flying act with the Ringling Show for many years.

Looks kind of like "Old Milwaukee Time" to me. I shudder to remember.

I have access to any beer beverage I want. Old Milwaukee is by far the best beer and I always choose it. At xmas I usually can count on six cases from clients. I never ask the cost of it and was surprised that it is so cheap. I could afford to buy my own. Really good stuff. Don't knock it. It goes great with lobster, eggs benidect(sic). snails etc.
