EP 53: The Hartford Circus Fire

This week on Hashtag History, we are discussing the Hartford Circus Fire. This was a fire that occurred on July 6, 1944 in Hartford, Connecticut and would be marked as one of the worst fires in US History. The fire happened during a Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey performance that was attended by close to 8,000 people! It would result in the deaths of 168 people and injury to another 700 people.
