Best Answer

Carne means Meat in Spanish. Most carnivals have food chains, stands, commissary , etc. so there is the food connection. There are even some types of foods associated with Carnivals such as Cotton Candy. an alternate theory has it meant 9 Goodbye to Meat- as there used to be pre-lenten carnivals in some parts of the country, either way Meat is involved. Not on the go-go girls. I often wonder if the Ronettes ever plyed their trade on the Orpheum circuit. They did have an open-air act called Twisterama, which has a carney sound.
