A Brief History of The Circus Nuts

The Circus Nuts were born out of necessity more than anything.

Many of us were in a family Custos Cohors. It was a hitman family where we would do another families dirty work at a price. However, as time went on there wasn’t much in the way of new clients. At that point in time I decided to join Skidmark United and, abandoned the only TMB home I had known.

I learned a great deal in Skidmark United. I loved the “fuck all” attitude and, new some of the members I had left behind at Custos shared this sentiment. I was with Skidmark for several months when, I decided that I needed to branch out and do something on my own.

Calais, Powderpuff, Holt and, myself “Buck_Nasty” decided to create the Circus Nuts. It was part of one of Calais’ families and, part of my former disenfranchised members of Custos. From the onset we wanted to make a big statement. I believe our first round playing as a family The Nuts & Skidmark United wiped out all of London more or less. That essentially put us on the map. 

After about two rounds Holt & Calais had some kind of turmoil. I’m not sure what happened but, both left the family. That left it all up to me to continue. With Puff being my right hand man I knew that we would be successful. The amount of hate mail and, reckless abandon that we played with every round was something to be marveled. Once in a while we would join in on a hit with the Skids. Most of the time though we wanted to wreak as much havoc on a union as a solo unit. 

The idea or mantra behind the Nuts was to push the envelope in worse taste than the
Skids if possible. We had fewer rules in our family and, were as unsavory of characters as anywhere on the game. Imagine Chuck or Drum being in charge of Skidmark United with the mantra being one of Rufee or Luckyhands profile pictures. 

Through a solid core of players we had a strong run. We saw many unions come and go during our time. If I’m honest we were an extension of Skidmark United. Not all of us could where the dirty undies at once. However, we became our own identity over time. We would have contests to see who could get the most blocks in a round. The most DU kills in a round. We genuinely liked to mess with people and make them feel uncomfortable. The game knew that like Charles Oakley to this day we weren’t to be
trifled with. I believe we had some of the best hitters, players and, trash talkers in one
family at any time.  
In the end the Nuts became what happens to so many of us in TMB. 
We lost time for the game. Maybe were a victim of our own success and, couldn’t really outdo ourselves anymore. We had a great run and, I know the name carried on for years after I was no longer at the helm. The Circus Nuts were truly lighting in a bottle made up of so many great players. It was a magic that can never last forever but, when it worked we were devastating. 

In Closing I would like to thank The Skids for creating the prototype FYUU. More
importantly the players that made Puff & I look like we had any semblance of an idea as to what we were doing:
Chop
Silent Assassin
Marie
Spaniard
Blink
Santoro
Greasy
Nipples
Bacharach Cadillac

To those I can’t remember. I’m sorry You Know I Drink.
