The Stooges get a job putting up posters for the circus, but discover that they are paid in tickets rather than cash. They go to the circus to scalp their tickets, and when Curly accidentally finds a long string of tickets, the boys try to scalp them. They're chased by the cops and dragged before the circus owner, who's mad at them for ruining his posters. Instead of sending them to jail, he offers them a job at the circus - as targets for the Mad Sultan of Abadabba, the spear thrower!
