This past weekend Kathleen and I were in Dublin for a couple of events. We managed a short visit to the Street Performance World Championship in Merrion Square. Though we didn’t get to see much of the show, we did see part of the final performance by the Space Cowboy, who won the competition for the second year in a row. The Space Cowboy is from Australia and actually earns a living as a street performer. Check out the videos below to see why he can make a living at it, and why he won the competition. His act involves hat tricks, sword swallowing, a unicycle, and juggling! It was pretty amazing.
