What I wanted to know is if anybody has seen  Siamese Twins at an actual sideshow In-person, along the lines of those seen in the 1952 movie?

While we're at it, there was even another one called The Incredible Two-Headed Transplant.  I wonder whether Rick saw that one too or not.  I know it's gotten negative reviews but I think the movie...

Thing With 2 Heads for me. The satire of a white bigot with an extra black head attached is priceless. (Favourite scene - when Rosie Grier realizes what's happening. Instead of screaming he just says...
