carnivals in IL? Thank you very much if you can tell where they are. They have a Force 10, Expo Wheel, Cliffhanger, a yellow Scat, High Flyer (Kamikaze), Himilaya, and a Pharoah's Fury. The most obvious signs that it is All Around Amusements is the Force 10, High Flyer, and Scat.

If you're talking about the company up near Rockford, I do repairs for RAH Entertainment who has and does work with them occasionally. If you are looking for a gig with them, I could get some contact info for you.
I can tell you from experience, the life of a carny is not for the faint of heart!

^Or Lungs with the way I see them smoking..

Having worked around carny's many times I can tell you smoking is probably the healthiest and least worrisome of their predilections.
Rank insignia amongst carny's is in the form of teeth or lack thereof. The more teeth you have, the greener you are in Carny world. Reverse order for homemade tattoo's. Missing fingers and limbs is also up there in rank as well.
