"Bozo the Clown" dead at 83

Harmon Of 'Bozo The Clown' Fame Dies At 83
Quote:
Publicist Says Harmon Died Of Congestive Heart Failure

Larry Harmon, who appeared as Bozo the Clown for decades and licensed the name to other Bozos around the world, had died at age 83.

Harmon died Thursday at his home of congestive heart failure, his longtime publicist, Jerry Digney, told The Associated Press.

Although not the first person to play Bozo, Harmon took on the famous clown's persona and, as an entrepreneur, he licensed the character to others, particularly TV stations. Those stations then recruited their own Bozos for local shows.

Harmon met his alter ego after answering a casting call to make personal appearances as a clown to promote records. He got the job and eventually bought the rights to Bozo.

Along the way, he embellished Bozo's distinctive look: the orange tufted hair, the bulbous nose, the outlandish red, white and blue costume.

Re: "Bozo the Clown" dead at 83
When I was little, I got lost at an air show at an Air Force base. Bozo was in the lost and found hanger. I freaked out and cried...then he stepped on my foot with his gigantic shoe. It all came back to me when I watched Stephen King's "It".....

Rest in peace Bozo....I know you meant well...

I thought he died a long, long time ago. He terrified me. I know he meant a lot to many. My condolences to his family.

Bozo? No, no!
They've given me a number, and taken away my name!

My favorite part of his show was the ball toss game at the end. My brother and I spent many hours practicing throwing a small rubber ball into the bathroom trashcan so that we would win if we were ever on his show.
