Big Top

Big Top is the talking hat of MC Ballyhoo, and serves as his co-host in the Wii game Mario Party 8. Big Top has the ability to talk, and has a mind of its own.

What Big Top stores
Despite its size (which actually isn't all that big), Big Top can hold a number of things inside of itself.


 * Coins and Coin Bags (Chump Charity)
 * Tic-Tac Balls (Tic-Tac-Drop)
 * Star Rod (end of Star Battle)
 * Year supply of candy on a platform.
 * Big Top also pops a propeller out of his head when Ballyhoo must fly somewhere.

Trivia

 * Big Top is named after "big top", an alternate word for "carnival". The "Top" part of his name is also likely a reference to the fact that he is a hat.
 * Big Top's name is similar to that of Big Top Drop, a minigame from Mario Party 5. However, this is likely a mere coincidence, as Big Top and Big Top Drop simply both have the same namesake.
