Tonight we took the kids to the circus! Circus Gatti is in Amarillo and the kids were so excited when I told them that we would be going, courtesy of the wonderful people from Circus Gatti! When we first got there we were greeted by 2 beautiful elephants. One seemed to be dancing to her own beat then the other was giving rides. My daughters favorite animal is the elephant and my 2 year old son was just in awe, so when we asked them if they wanted to go for a ride, the look on their faces answered our question for us. Robert got to ride in front with his sister behind him then Toby rode behind them on the beautiful, gentle giant. Robert thought he was a big man and Estrella was so proud to be up there riding that beauty! When the ride was over Robert cried because he was not ready to get off, but once we told him we were ready to go into the circus arena, he decided he was ready. The kids went in and waited with us for the show to start. From the first performance to the last act, I was amazed on how they could fit that much talent into one show. There were beautiful, graceful dancers and incredibly talented and daring acrobats. Cute animals, funny clown and a ring master full of personality. Everything that was needed to make an amazing show from beginning to end! So if Circus Gatti is coming to a town near you, I would recommend that you get your tickets for your entire family and let everyone know! Makes for a great night out for the whole family!!!

You should do a google search to see the horror that these "circus" elephants go through when being trained and while traveling 50-odd weeks a year!!
I cannot disagree with this review of Circus Gatti more. My family recently saw this "act" perform in Del Rio, TX and it was the biggest waste of money I have ever spent. We left the show early.
Took our three year olds to the show and was basically a waste. Other than some dogs, a pony and the motorbikes the kids were not interested. NO elephants anywhere which was a big disappointment. As well the 'ring master' was selling stuff the whole show which was annoying
