Cole Bros. Circus: John Pugh's New Big Top

In this first of a multi-part, on-location series by Lane Talburt on Cole Bros. Circus, 30-year owner John Pugh and Elvin Bale, the show's VP-operations, explain the countless hours of planning, design and labor required to set up "America's largest circus under the big top."
