The place that got the tigers in Haven, TN said they were well taken care of. Feed well and had great medical care. All 16 of them now live in the sanctuary here in Haven, Tn we’re they will live out there day retired. I loved the video!!!
Thank you Jordan, for showing us around the Ringling Brothers Museum, and gardens with the beautiful statues surrounding the grounds . Also glad to see in one of the comments on this video that the tigers have a safe sanctuary in Haven TN. ❤🙏🌈🌺
We visited this location a few years ago. Such a beautiful location. You will enjoy the mansion when you visit again. We had an audio tour. THANK YOU 😊!
This is a must see when in Sarasota. We live in Ocala, Florida and love to go to the Sarasota, St Petersburg area. The Ringling mansion is breath taking as is the circus museum. The garden walk is awesome also. Thanks for sharing
Sue from Chicagoland saying HI 👋 😊 This was actually a throwback memory for me🤗 I was there in 1974 when I was on vacation with a school friend...we traveled with her family from Chicagoland all the way to Florida & spent 2 fabulous weeks there & LOVED FLORIDA ❣️ I was only 14 at the time & that makes me 63 now👍🤣 Thanks for sharing...great memories of my youth❤
This museum was great. They have so much to see. Really well done. The circus is sort of a dying art...at least here in Calif. Kind of sad. Glad l got to see the circus with the animals when I was young. Fun vlog!
Really enjoyable vlog. Love these museum visits, they always seem to offer much more than they advertise - for example, the Pullman train displayed an age of craftmanship that, sadly, seems to have disappeared. What a beautiful setting - and what an amazing looking house. Once more, many thanks for sharing all these great places with us.
I have a mutual friend of Bello Nock, our mutual friend says he is one of the nicest people you’d ever meet. When he is in NYC they hang out or go out to eat a few times a year.
Really enjoyed this. When I was a teen working at America Amusement the Flying Wallendas were an act there. I hung out with the circus folks as much as I could.
Love this tour of museum and grounds! I went to college with the man that was dean of clown college for a while . He was in Chicago for a few years and we graduated in the same class. He later went on to run the Big Apple circus, I think that was it. I recognized him on a PBS documentary/ series . We would catch up at special events/ reunions for Goodman School of Drama , now the Theatre School of De Paul . We all lost touch but this vlog reminded me. Thanks! Enjoy your channel very much.
My goodness Jordan. This was by far one of the best videos I've seen. I also loved the circus. I'm really sad that they aren't using the animals anymore as it was a great part of the show. A big thank you and may all your days be Circus days.
Nice to see this. I was there in the 80s when my grandma lived in Sarasota. I don’t think the circus museum was there yet though. (Actually I believe they were renovating it when I was there so that’s why I didn’t go in it). And they used to not even allow photos in the house.
Awesome vlog. I sure hope Scott and you checked out Howard Bros world's largest minature circus while there. By the way, you saw Bello Nock at the Florida State Fair. He was the guy you talked about playing the guitar as part of the jet pack flyboarding jet ski show. Too bad the Circus Hall of Fame Museum isn't around anymore. Paul Reubens an I spent some time reminiscing about that place a few years back. Gunther was an awesome guy and really loved all of his animals. That is cool you collect circus music LPs.
We love this museum. It's amazing in person. We have had tours of the private train car and house. Its really stunning. I visited when they filmed great expectations in 98, if I recall correctly. Thanks for sharing!
I moved to Sarasota over 2 years ago and have been here twice. It’s so enlightening on the mechanism of the running the circus, the historical features, train cars and castle is all preserved. For $25 you can spend a whole day exploring and learning. There’s also a circus train a couple miles away that serves brunch affordably, called Bob’s Train, full of circus memorabilia.
Back in the 80’s we had a local tv program called Happy The Hobo in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Mark Frey was a clown that was in the circus before he did this tv show.
They changed some of the displays since we were there in 2003, I love it very colorful and interactive. The art gallery is superb, all the art was collected by Mabel Ringling.
My second son was born in 1990 and I remember filling out, and sending away for a free ticket to the Barnum & Bailey Circus, celebrating their 100 year anniversary (if I remember correctly.) It was for a one time use, but it was good for anytime in his lifetime. It never arrived, Im not too sure, but I think we moved away before it came. Then the circus has been shut down for sometime now. Ive often wonderd who ended up with that ticket!?! Great video, Jordan, I enjoyed it very much! I hope you didnt mind my little story. 👍👍
Thanks Jordan, this is bringing back childhood memories. My grandparents used to live in New Port Richey, I would them in the summers. About 50 years ago, I visited this compound it was amazing.
Love all the old circus memories. I loved going to the circus as a kid. This is off subject but have you ever watched all the Shelly Winters and Debbie Reynolds appearances on the old game show "What's My Line"?
Animals have been eliminated from circuses. Now clowns. (Thanks a mil, J.W. Gacy. 🙄) Improve a situation, lose a lot as a result. Goes to show that there is often no ideal solution, and that all we can do as a species is strive for and hope for the best possible outcome. Many times resolving to just "make the best of it."

I enjoyed the circus. I saw the Ringling Circus once. Enjoyed your video!
I enjoyed this video Jordan It was so much fun to watch.

Oh, to see the old props from my childhood! Bless you for sharing this video😊😊❤❤❤❤
I have a mutual friend of Bello Nock, our mutual friend says he is one of the nicest people you’d ever meet. When he is in NYC they hang out or go out to eat a few times a year.
the water views of the mansion are some of the best. The mansion is open for self guided
What a colorful display of circus memorabilia! Thanks for sharing this unique experience with us, Jordan!!!
Cool 😎 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

They aren’t using animals anymore because it’s cruel and it’s called animal abuse.
@@kittylicious That's funny because if you ever went behind the scenes like I did you would have seen how they actually care for the animals.
Love Sarasota, brings back so many happy memories with my parents. Spectacular museum.
Always a good time when you and Scott are together 😎🐾
This is amazing!!
I want to do this tour ! Never knew it was in FL!
Jordan an Scott Michael's are you clowning around 😂Thank you for taking all us with you on this circus adventure
This was an amazing tour.
Thank you for mentioning your record collection. I ❤ vinyl records.
Nice to see this. I was there in the 80s when my grandma lived in Sarasota. I don’t think the circus museum was there yet though. (Actually I believe they were renovating it when I was there so that’s why I didn’t go in it). And they used to not even allow photos in the house.
🎪Great video Jordan! Thanks again. ~Love&Light♥️C.
Very interesting!

Thanks for sharing this. Looks like a great place. I just read about a town in Nebraska with a population of 1.
Ringing Brothers Circus 🎪 Love my favorite one fan BIG 💖

Youre in my area now 😊. God bless 🙏
Cool Museum! I remember attending one of the shows when I was a kid. It was fun.
Awesome! One of my favorite musicians performed there many years ago!

Great video Jordan nice museum of the ringlengle brothers circles my favorite circles growing up to see
How fun!!!!!🤡🎪thanks for your video
Great Job!! Checkout the Clown College and it's art at Lake Placid, Fflorida.
I have fond childhood memories of when the R Bros. B & B Circus came to my hometown. 😊🤡❤️
Jordan I love the circus - thank you for sharing! What a great adventure
Thanks Jordan, I needed this video today. An escape from reality. Broke my foot last week, let’s say I’m going stir crazy in the house.
I love the old Ringling Brothers Circus and would go see it every year. Too bad it's not the same now.
My second son was born in 1990 and I remember filling out, and sending away for a free ticket to the Barnum & Bailey Circus, celebrating their 100 year anniversary (if I remember correctly.)

Great video, Jordan, I enjoyed it very much!
I hope you didnt mind my little story.
👍👍
I think this was wonderful to see!!❤ I live in Orlando and planned a trip over to sarasota..❤❤🎉
awesome video
I went in '21 and I think I missed the prop/costume room. Only saw the mural and long long minature model of teh circus
Thanks Jordan, this is bringing back childhood memories. My grandparents used to live in New Port Richey, I would them in the summers. About 50 years ago, I visited this compound it was amazing.
Fascinating museum awesome tour Jordan
In 1988 my husband and I got married in the Rose Garden. Is the old stone and metal gazebo still there in the middle?
Love all the old circus memories. I loved going to the circus as a kid. This is off subject but have you ever watched all the Shelly Winters and Debbie Reynolds appearances on the old game show "What's My Line"?
My father in law lives next door to Ringling and Jacks Donuts, I’ve been there several times!!!
Thanks Jordan and Scott!! That was fun ❤
I'm a descendant of the Brothers grandfather. Our family is from Wisconsin. But I need to go here one day.
15:22 that is @scottontape! 😂😂😂. Sorry, had to!
Thought that circus completely shut down. Did it come bw
