At first glance, this photo looks like an arena over head net, but if you look again, they are doing repair work on a flying act net. In the back ground are the cat cages. This photo may have been taken on Terrell’s circus…… After looking at this photo again and again, I am thinking that it is an arena net. Why else would Terrell be standing there over seeing the work being done.
