Carny

A carny is a person who works at a carnival, which is a big outdoor event with rides, games, and food stands. Carnies help set up the carnival and operate the rides and games. They also sometimes dress up in costumes and perform tricks to entertain the people at the carnival. Carnies travel around a lot, going from place to place with the carnival, and they often live in trailers or other temporary housing while they are working. Some people might think that carny life is exciting and fun, while others might find it hard work and tiring.
