Do freak shows still exist?

My grandfather was telling me a story the other day about when he went to the circus when he was a kid and they have a freak show that traveled with them. He told me all about the bearded lady and boy that had scale-like skin and so on. Then he asked if I had ever seen one, and I couldn't recall. But then I started thinking about it and I've never seen a freak show out of all the carnivals and circuses I've been to. The closest thing I've seen is an oddity stand that had like 2 headed animals and such. So has anyone heard of freak shows still traveling around?

Yeah they still do...

The Circus of Horrors being a popular one in the UK, they have all sorts of gross freaks in that, but they love performing anyway.

I just go to Toronto and walk around the scummy neighbourhoods.
