Ticket sales were down over the last ten years, but bottomed out when the elephants left the show.
Some 500 people perform and work on both touring shows. A handful will be placed in positions with the company's other, profitable shows — it owns Monster Jam, Disney on Ice and Marvel Live, among other things — but most will be out of a job.

A classic demonstration of what happens when one allows the Left to bully one. How many of the Left ever went to the Circus for a first-hand view of the supposed animal cruelty? Few if any. And none ever had an intention to go after the elephants left; they just wanted their demands met, whether it wrecked the subject/object of their screaming or not.
