You can't beat a human cannonball.

Many of us have childhood memories of the circus - watching the trapeze, dancing elephants and clowns while eating cotton candy and peanuts.

It's time to experience it all again this year with the Akdar Shrine Circus, which runs Thursday through Sunday at the Expo Square Pavilion.

Juggling, big cats, high-wire motorcycling – expect to see them all at this show.
