GRAPHIC=None Finding a parking spot at a big


event can often turn into a big
headache.

That was the situation for many
who came out to the Roanoke Civic
Center Wednesday night.


There were two huge events going
on at the same time.

But, the city hopes to alleviate
any parking problems this *weekend* --
as the circus rolls into town.
