Yikes.Benson's stratospheric climb was often haunted by tragedy. He outlived his first two wives, all three of his younger brothers and two of his three children.

170 firefighters have died because of the fumes near the WTC. That's unbelievable.

One of many to play him...Willard Scott also had a short stint as Bozo.
I remember my favorite game was the ball-tossing game where you had to get it in the six buckets, and with each bucket your prize got better. They had a version of that game at Chuck-E-Cheese when I was younger and I absolutely loved it.

Larry Harmon was Bozo and he died like a decade ago.

But he's also been dead for many years.

He was a clown. But not this clown.Pretty sure John Wayne Gacy was Bozo the Clown.
True story: In college, I met Robert Ressler, one of the FBI profilers who interviewed Gacy many many times over the years of his imprisonment. They had developed a close relationship (not a friendship, of course), and Ressler got to know him pretty well, in a p-shrink kind of way. Which is an uncomfortable spot when you're talking about a serial killer who killed close to three dozen teenage boys. Anyhoo, he told a story that about a year prior he was driving back to his hotel after interviewing this or or that psycho in a prison, and it was pretty late or even early am the next day, when his car just up and shut off. Like engine, electrics, everything. He had the car towed to the hotel, and after getting a few hours sleep when he was showing his cohort the car, the guy looked at the dash clock and was like, "Was that the time the car shut off?" Ressler said it was. Guy said, "That's the exact time Gacy was executed last night."

I didn't realize there were so many Bozos and it appears that the Bozo I know was Bob Bell Chicago Bozo, but there are so many I can't tell who was who and now my childhood memories are in question. I also remember his sidekick Cooky the Clown which I believe was part of the Bob Bell runWhat are we talking about here?
