The only time the smells were bad was in the exhibition hall where we could walk around and see all the animals. Other than that, the smell was of funnel cakes and cotton candy.
It was a great time by all. This was my daughter's first circus, as well as my bro-in-law's first. The tickets were for really good seats, and they were free. I got them from a fellow cigar smoker who has tickets for various events set aside for clients and such. He hooked me up.
