Jaffa Shrine — Attraction in Altoona

I have always loved going to the Jaffa. I knew if I was going to the Jaffa something really cool and exciting was going down. My favorite was wrestling, the circus was always a decent time. I usually walk out of the Shrine with a smile on my face and grateful to have spent some quality time with the family and or friends. Not much action comes to Altoona but when it does it's gonna be hosted by a bunch of guys that call themselves the Shriners and are responsible for alot of good things that happen in our community.

What the heck do aliens have to do with the circus?? Overall disappointed... the circus just isn't what...

The show was ok but there was very little performance from the clowns.

My biggest complaint is that we were moved from our seats twice. We bought our tickets on line and chose three seats including an outside end seat because I have mobility issues. Just before the show started 7 people came over with a Jaffa member claiming the row of seats were theirs. They had also purchased their tickets online. We were moved up three rows to the front.
