Creativity and drawing the eye to your ride, joint or show is more important than wearing uniforms at St John's School...UGH[^]

Right...I think it's from guys that want other carnies to think they played on the Big Show....I bet half the joints out there with the "Wavey W" on them never even played a spot with Wade...



I've been on show that dictated the color of your canvas, but does a show like Wade, with a custom canvas color scheme, sell canvas to independents, like shows sell shirts? That would be a helluva ding.



That would indeed be a serious ding...



are you trying to give frank help in making money ??? [8)]



I think he does alright in that aspect of life on his own [;)]

Every piece the same color scheme would be a bit of overkill and I could understand why you'd hate that. I was speaking more of canvas and trucks than actual rides....

Belle City uses a lot of orange, white, blue and yellow..it looks really good.



not sure if i did the quote thing correctly, but if u want to see different color trucks n trailors. check out J&Js folder on my myspace. soon to be adding matching red otterbacher bunkhouses. lol

Bates has Big Red Bunkhouses that don't have any lettering other then SHOWER ROOM in 2 ft tall letters that can been seen from a mile away....I guess they got to let everyone know that's where the Ride jocks take Baths....

I know some guys that got 3 or 4 different tops for their joints depending on what show they are with...

How about Bates's Trucks...All Blue trucks with Orange Grills...Looks like hell. There is no other orange anywhere on the show...


When we were with Drago their trucks were white and the grill was the color of the ride. That was the back in the days when every ride had a truck.
