editIt really doesn't make sence to copy a list from another article (in this case the circus skills article) as was done here. Now updates have to be made twice - once here and once to the origional. If no one objects, I am going to replace the list with a paragraph on their being lots of sideshow skills, and a link to the origional article.
any history here?
how about the 1960s where people tried to 'free' the performers at sideshows because they did not like people singling out 'freaks of nature'?

Re: Urban slang
editThis section is absurd, biased, and just plain wrong. I don't think we should citing random entries from Urban Dictionary, for one. Second, the idea that this has anything to do with "minority populations" is ridiculous. White people have been holding their own version of sideshows for decades, from motorcycle events to classic car shows to hotrad racing and showing off. This is a human thing, not a race thing.

- I deleted the entire section. There's already a link to Sideshow (automobile exhibition) in the hatnote. This article is not about that topic. Viriditas (talk) 22:15, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
