Seemingly Innocuous
The Hartford Circus fire of 1944
Descripción
On a hot summer day, 7000 people gathered at the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey’s traveling circus in Hartford, Connecticut, for what was sure to be a spectacle. Little did any of the patrons know just how memorable that day was going to be and how absolutely tragic! Join Hav this week as he covers this disastrous event and discusses many attendees who were forced to make split decisions not knowing what their fate truly held for them. This is a tough one but I hope you enjoy this week’s episode (as much as one could enjoy it….)
