When I was little, I used to watch him before some of the Cubs game started, is that the same guy??? Good memories...

    I think he passed away a while ago...at least the original Bozo.

    So I don't know who Bozo is. What, is he like a clown or something?

    Bob Bell played the "Chicago Bozo" for WGN; he died a few years back. Larry Harmon, who just died, would probably be considered the original Bozo since he owned the rights to the character and was mostly responsible for franchising it out to dozens of markets.

    When I was a contestant, I had to fill an overturned basket with balloons - whoever stuffed in the most balloons would win something. I remember each time I would lift the basket to add another balloon, ALL OF THE OTHER BALLOONS TRIED TO ESCAPE !!! It wasn't an easy task.
