    A Shriners circus or ceremonial event taking place in a large indoor arena filled with spectators. Several men wearing distinctive Shriners fezzes are lined up on a colorful circus floor mat, including one in a tuxedo holding a microphone, several in red polo shirts, and one dressed as a clown. A banner for 'Northern Printing' with an El Paso area code (915) is visible in the background.
