Bill Capell’s Back Yard
Posted By thecircusblog on January 14, 2010
When you came to visit Bill…. this is where all the stories and jackpots took place. Bill had painted a ring curb in the center of the area and placed around it props and chairs. He even had a ferris wheel seat on a rack and it allowed you to rock back and forth in it if you wished. Bill took the Foley & Burk office wagon and made it his own. As you sat and talked, circus music could sometimes be heard in the background. Even though Bill no longer owned a circus or carnival, he was still in the business of being a showman. He loved every monent of visiting with family and friends at his one ring circus. Now the ring is empty and Bill is gone, but Iam quiet sure that he is laying out a lot somewhere in heaven.
