Murphy? Wow, that really is scraping the bottom of the proverbial barrel. Was Satan unavailable? After the BS Murphy and Co. pulled in Tulsa, I wouldn't want him near anything I owned...
Not really, I'd say they about even. Pugh bought the old Gooding routes, lived off them untill he burned all those bridges. Which was a shame as Floyd Gooding was IMHO one of the classiest persons in the carnival world .The Murphy's had all kinds of political pockets they lined in the midwest, which ultimately lead to the demise of the Royal American Shows.
