Det vilde vesten, USA, ca 1880
Lucky Luke støder på et omrejsende tivoli, med elefanten Andy, løven Nelson, cirkusdirektøren Erasmus Mulligan, trapezkunstneren Vanessa Mulligan, Zip Kilroy alias komikeren Zippy, som er gift med direktørens datter, Daphne, som kaster med knive og betvinger heste. De støder på både indianere og den lokale rodeoarrangør, Corderoy "Diamant-tand" Zilch.
Jolly Jumper har mange talenter, og her viser han fx at han kan få Lucky Luke til at komme, når han fløjter. Zilch bliver uvenner med Andy og tilkalder en lejemorder for at skyde den. Det går ikke så godt for lejemorderen, Klapperslange Joe. Via lidt forviklinger går Zilch og Mulligan i kompagniskab.
Cirkusdirektøren har en umiskendelig lighed med W. C. Fields.

Morsom historie med intriger og karikaturer iblandt. ( )

Lucky Luke wordt achterna gezeten door indianen, maar die gaan er plotseling vandoor. De reden is een olifant (een grijze, geen roze). De olifant blijkt te horen bij het circus van Erasmus Mulligan, die met een kapotte wagen staan. Als dank voor het helpen repareren krijgen Lucky Luke en Jolly Jumper een privé voorstelling.
Lucky Luke was eigenlijk op weg naar Fort Coyote voor een rodeo. Fort Coyote wordt overheerst door Corduroy Zilch. Als het circus van Mulligan dan ook zijn opwachting maakt in Fort Coyote, is Zilch niet blij met deze concurrentie.
Zilch probeert vanalles om het circus weg te krijgen. Een premiejager, een lastercampagne, maar Lucky Luke zorgt er wel voor dat het niet lukt. Dan gaan ook de indianen zich er weer mee bemoeien...
