The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College graduate invited peta2 to his place to talk about what life is really like for animals in the circus and just how he feels about his alma mater. One of the great—and sometimes scary—things about Steve-O is that he’s not afraid to say exactly what’s on his mind, and right now that’s getting animals out of the circus. Another great thing about Steve-O is that he’s giving—he literally gave us the shirt off his back and signed it for you, along with a skate deck that you can enter to win by completing the form below.
