Template:Character-infobox 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.
