Street entertainers are everywhere and I have to admit that some of them are very good and full of talented.However, there were are also some of the entertainers who was just love to do someting on the street and got a few dollars in their pocket and that's all. I wouldn't blame them since life is not easy for lots of people and they really need money to survive. But in terms of entertainment, you jsut can't accept it. I still remembered I have seen a gilr in Canada once.I don't think that she was dancing for money , because she didn't even put a plate on the street and asked for that money.It seemed that she was trying to attrat others by her dancing and hope that someone would hired her to do some great dancing or things like that. Unfortunately, nobody knows that what she was dancing about and the way she danced would make you confuse on the action she was performing. As a whole, I didn't know what she was doing and everybody passed by the street didn't have any interest on what she did and just walked away. That would be one of the worst entertainment that I have ever seen in this world. Well, since that's on the street and everybody knows that you can't expect too much anyway.How about your experience?Share with us.

i wildlittlefan the worst experience I had with street entertainment was a mime and I usually enjoyed watching skillful street mimes. this
one was obnoxious and was cominng onto me and my husband was getting madder and madder and finally he suddenly left. He had all but kissed me then we discovered what the hell he was doing he was taking my billfold out of my hand bag and I had not even noticed. till i went to take it out and it was gone. luckily there was two p olice officer close by and I told them which way he went. amazingly they came back five minutes later with the mime in handcuffs and the older officer smiled as he handed me my billfold. "maan I made him put all your ids and your money back count it to be sure." I did and it was wonderfully unusually all th@wildlittlefan (4680)

For sure , you had the worst entertainment of all because someone had just wnated to stole you stuffs away.Well, Thnak God that the poilice were around and caught the guy on time, otherwise, you might expereinced some lost.Well, there are just so many bad guys in this world that they are always looking for opportunity to take advantage from other people and hurt others as well, We really have to bestay alert at all times. I hope you can really enjoy some great entertainment on the street but for usre safety is the most important issue.

I don't have hate relationship with street entertainers. They're just like blah for me. I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and here, you can see street tango dancers everywhere and many times is boring to see them. I can dance as well as they dance but I'm not dancing on the street. Maybe that's the reason why I found them boring, I see them almost everyday and I can dance too, so, it's like nothing new, so boring.

Hey, tago... I love to wtahc it from youtube all the times and I once wtahced it in na stadium as well. I would love to know how to dance like that as well but I am not sure if my health is still be able to do so. I think the dance is so cool but it is not easy to be a great tango dancer anyway. Actually the dance in South America are always cool that no wonder many people want to learn it from all over the world. It seems like more parents in my city will send their kids to learn dance like that,but I think some dance may not be good for the kids anyway. Since this kinds of dance will emphasize on physical contact and some kinds of dancing behaviour that may not be good for children. I think a proper education for the kids will be better for them before or while they are learning dance like that.

Certainly the most embarrassing (for the audience) was the mime artist who specialized in mimicking anyone who passed him by. Once this guy was in front of a mall entrance and I had to go in there, and there was no way to dodge him.... so I just walked up to him, and held out my hand. He kissed it. Since then, he never tried to imitate me again, but the deal was that I had to do something special like that... every time I saw him.

In Athens, the fashion is to dress up like a statue with white toga and chalk on your face and hair, etc. Then stand as still as you can. It's a pretty lame form of entertainment - in fact, it is begging! They don't make much money and it must be very tiring to stand all day long. I like to make them jump with an unexpected BOO!
