Busking in the US

Comedy and content over skills every time. The audience has no idea how
hard most tricks are, so make 'em laugh instead and keep it simple.
Figure out a gimmick or a theme.

Call your local police station and ask them if it's legal where you are.

I know in national parks (like yellostone) it is NOT legal. (We found
that out the hard way) and in places like boston you need a permit.
(also found out the hard way) Most other places around the country I
haven't ran into any problems.

I believe in most cases it goes by city. Some cities have an active
busking community, while others probably don't. This may be more related
to the money that can be made than anything else. A look on the juggling
forum(s) might be more helpful than here, where there are few pros
reading.

Oddly enough, I just heard about a statistic today that Fort Wayne,
Indiana was rated the "dumbest city in the country?" How does one
measure these things?

I have been to Fort Wayne (Groundhogs Day Jugglefest or something), way
back in 1984. It was lots of fun!
