Bozo the Clown

[Ponyfan]

Anyone remember watching Bozo?  I remember watching it on WGN Chicago

I always liked the Grand Prize Game

I loved Bozo. I had the Bozo buckets and we would play during my birthday parties

I have vague memories of watching Bozo a time or two when I was preschool age.

Oh yes!! I thought it was a 'baby show' in the 80's, but would watch it out of the corner of my eye as my little siblings watched it, secretly enthralled at watching those kids toss the ball in those numbered buckets.

That sounds like fun.   


I found a few more clip, but it looks like most of them are still owned by WGN and they're very selective about which clips they allow to be posted on Youtube.

In the Grand Prize Game version I remember the prize in the last bucket was $50 and a new bike.  There was also a wagon as a prize because Bozo or Cooky also put the prizes in the wagon after it was won. 

I found a clip where the prize was $29 in Silver Dollars and a new bike. 


I wish I could find a clip where some of the really little kids picked to play walked up to the bucket and put the ball in instead of throwing it from the line.

Hobgoblin march where kids got to parade around in their Halloween costumes.   Some of the expressions on the kids faces are funny.
