“No, you go by Hugo.” That’s what we ride goofs said on the picket line as we cleaned up closer and closer to Hugo who seemed to be strategically placed as an introduction to the Elephant business. What a great picture of a class act!
Little John, Hugo aka "Doc" when I had him in Dallas and we sold him, George and Bonnie aka "Konti" to RBBB back in 73 or late 72, he was tough and always was! I saw him go after alot of my backup help there in Dallas. I got along fine with him and when we loaded him in the Ringling truck I made the mistake of having his head by the door on the side. The driver didn't make it five miles from the park and Hugo had busted the side door open and bent it in the middle where it wouldn't close. We had to wrap chains around the whole trailer to keep the door shut! I also warned the driver who wasn't an animal guy to NOT go in the trailer with him! The Red unit was in Dallas at the State Fair Colisum and the driver stopped at a Truck Stop in Mesquite and went in the trailer and Hugo nailed him and sent him to the hospital. One of Gunthers guys had to make the trip to Fla with him. Bonnie the african also tore the hell out of a Ringling trailer loaded with Mattel concession and office furniture. She must have punched over 100 holes through the sides of that trailer with her tusks! Guess my elephants didn't like leaveing me???LOL!
Gary - The trashcan art the bottom are so you can delete your posts. When dad logs in, being the Owner of the site - all of them have garbage cans letting the owner delete the message.
I had feared when I started it would not take long for animal rights nuts to arrive and force me to change the way people post messages.
Right now it's wide open - Persoanlly it's fun this way. But if needed I can change it.
By the way - I've come up with another layout for the site - I created a TEST SITE

Is the elephant head you can see almost completely, Susan? It looks like her.
No that's "Peggy".
"Susan" was in Axel's herd.
