I had completely forgot about this picture of me and Bozo, taken back in 1976, until I saw it in one of my mom's old photo albums. Been a long time!

Tell your old pal Bozo, do you walk to school or carry your lunch? GTT
That's been awhile. I had nightmares about ole Bozo The Clown. [emoji4]
I remember Bozo and the Ping Pong ball toss, right?
The Sho-Zo-Bow
That strange guy was around for years . :Rofl
I remember Bozo, watched him at lunch time! D10 it was called the Grand Prize Game.
My guess is that is where Ronald McD came from.
I remember a few of us cousins and friends all met at and left from my grandma's house in Bearden and we went in my uncle's van. There was probably 7 or 8 kids in our group. We went to a pizza place, then went to the studio. It was also raining outside. I can't really remember much about being there except that they played some songs (I think by Frankie Valli, maybe Sherry Baby) and told us all to do what Bozo did. I remember waving with one hand for a while, then with both hands for a while, then seems like we nodded our heads from side to side for a while. I do distinctively remember they selected a girl right in front of me to play the game "kick the balloon in the barrel." She almost got it in there too, but she lost.Quote:

As we, as a group, were leaving the studio, there was another large group of kids getting ready to come in right after us. I think it was all filmed on a Saturday, but I 'm not sure about that. I was only 7 years old.
I contacted the TV station and unfortunately ALL tapes of the Bozo Show were destroyed. GTT
I know the Chicago WGN station Bozo Show game was called the Grand Prize Game, but that was a different Bozo. That one had a helper clown, I forget his name. The Little Rock, Arkansas, KATV channel 7 Bozo Show that I went to was different from the Chicago show. The man, Gary Weir, is still around and calls horse races I think at Oaklawn in Hot Springs........without the red nose and hair.:). GTTQuote:
