Old Cirque Du Soleil tents to be sent to Haiti

The topic title pretty much sums it up, the old white and gold tent is being sent to Haiti to shelter the Port-au-Prince government. :)

Have we cracked, or has surrealism been superseded by consumerism and that is what's gone crazy? Either way, you can almost hear Salvador Dali laughing.

The tents, which initially cost about $5 million, were first used by Cirque du Soleil at the Mirage Hotel in Las Vegas a decade ago.


That should say "almost TWO decades ago."

Those are old tents, but it sure is a really nice thing to do
