LOL. There are those too young to remember................and those too old to remember.
He was big in Chicago. I’m not sure if the show was syndicated and if so how many cities. Was a creepy [BLEEP] clown doing creepy [BLEEP] clown [BLEEP]. You know the type. I remember the biggest thing was kids throwing ping pong balls into ‘bozo buckets’ at increasing distances. The prize? I don’t remember. Probably 15 minutes alone with bozo. God have mercy on their souls.

Different Bozo, and yes, he is the one that is long dead.

I am with bunny, the first thing I thought when I saw the article is 'this guy is still alive?'

This is the Bozo the Clown I remember.
As a child I watched that show when I lived in the Great Lakes area. And remember still catching it on WGN when I first moved to Pensacola.
I even owned the at home game of the ping pong balls and buckets.

Apparently, there were quite a few Bozos as it was a franchise idea as opposed to a syndication show.
Whoda thunk it.
After looking into more... I probably mostly remember

A fella named Joey D'Auria took the helm and it was likely him that I remember most especially once I was in Pensacola post 1993
