Clowns Brawl With Protesters Under Circus Big Top in San Bernardino

Clowns brawled with animal rights protesters under a circus big top in San Bernardino Friday night, witnesses say.

Hundreds of spectators watched the fight break out when workers allegedly tried to stop the activists from forcing their way inside after the Ramos Bros. Circus show began.

Two protestors were arrested following the melee, while two circus employees were injured when the fight broke out at 8:08 p.m., according to a San Bernardino Police Department spokesman.

Ringmaster Oliver Ramos claimed his lip was split after he was hit on the face with his megaphone in trying to keep protestors outside.

I'm really disappointed that there are no pictures of protesters getting squirted with seltzer, hit with ginormous shoes, or punching the clowns in their big red noses.

The mental images the headline conjures up are hilarious, but the actual visuals would be priceless.
