BOZO THE CLOWN: GRAND PRIZE GAME

I don't own any rights to Bozo the Clown

[@tareefsmith9027]

Bozo is LIT 😂

[@purpletomatocinema]

Yes he is

[@shannonfreeman2024]

Yes

[@shannonfreeman2024]

He didn't slur his words in the one

[@Arthur-hg7ny]

Yeah. Look at how red his nose is 😂

[@emalstrom1]

I loved the grand prize game!!!!!

[@brandonbaty2291]

This show is why I’m the beer pong champion of 2002. I always wanted to win a Bunn Coffemaker as a kid (for some inexplicable reason). 😂

[@theprivateer4961]

Holy crap. I remember being five and watching this and hoping i would be the "at home player" never realizing my parents would have to send my name it lol. This is like a time machine

[@jasonwhite5125]

I watched this erry day and went apeshit when the kids missed the first basket in the ball toss😆🤷‍♂️. I thought it looked east😆😆😆🤷‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

[@buggy64roberson-tb2gw]

Bob was great as Bozo...and Roy made a great sidekick.

[@conradhassell8546]

I watch this many time as a child

[@Buggy-su4oy]

Bob was the funniest man in Chicago at the time.

[@itjustlookslikethis]

Next to Richard Daley?

[@alanwilliams2013]

Was Bozo drunk?!.lol.

[@purpletomatocinema]

He was slurring his words😹

[@Ryguy1986lal]

He sounds sauced

[@rockandroller8352]

agreed🍹🍹🍹🍹

[@rodney1279TheFlip]

He sounded drunk. That was Bob Bell. That Bozo seemed scary to me. I love Joey D’Aria. That was the recent Bozo.

[@pennyroe3717]

Yea I think he was

[@shawnmichaelslazyeye5417]

Bozo had a little extra help on this one

[@SlimSnickers]

And now we know how a generation came up with beer pong. Thanks Bozo.

[@tacticalix]

Lottta friggin prizes on this show! Never thought of that.

[@creepingbert]

As a kid watching this, I used to think, wow Bozo is a little odd. 49 year old me watching this and now I realize that Bozo was 4 or 5 drinks in by this point in the show..

[@cathyizzo7886]

Every once in a while a kid would miss bucket number 1 😮

[@margaretw3409]

Yes..that would make me so sad.

[@LuisFelipeFelipe808]

Bozo is Great clown 😎👍

[@unholydudetx]

Jim Lahey as bozo

[@purpletomatocinema]

😹😹😹😹

[@ericsamuelson5656]

This was sometime from 1982-84 before Joey took over

[@RobertVancleave]

UMM Bozo sounds a little off ( YA WANNA TAKE A RIDE IN MY VAN MIKEY!!)

[@ringoluv1331]

I was an at home player. I still have some of the prizes I won.

[@Buggy-su4oy]

Sigh...Bob and Roy and Ned are missed....Bob should have guest starred on the Simpsons as his voice inspired Dan.

[@cpmow831]

2:21 “so Michael , does your mom like guys with big red noses?”

[@rockcitycards2993]

I watched this all the time as a little kid. I thought it was so cool. Watching it as an adult It's creepy asf, and bozo seems a little tipsy

[@cathyizzo7886]

I thought so too even when I was a kid. But I still loved the show

[@buggy64roberson-tb2gw]

Jenny was beautiful...just like the cake...Roy was also so clumsy as Cookie.

[@bufordjustice2743]

That Bozo doll the girl won was creepy looking lol it's prolly haunted

[@carollynnlopez]

Where can I find more episodes?

[@purpletomatocinema]

I got it from the Internet Archives

[@GeneralKenobiSIYE]

He sounds drunk 😂

[@purpletomatocinema]

If I had to play a clown and be surrounded by annoying kids for over 30 years, I'd be boozing it up too.😂

[@Punkneverdies]

That’s kinda rude to call them annoying bro

[@cathyizzo7886]

RIGHT there AH HA!

[@terrybutcher1751]

Sounds like chris farley

[@JoeRussellProductions]

Who was the actor who played Bozo?

[@purpletomatocinema]

Good question, I believe this one aired in Chicago so the actor was probably Marshall Brodien

[@mrmcclear]

@@purpletomatocinema Marshall played Wizzo on the show, not Bozo.

[@purpletomatocinema]

@@mrmcclear Really, I thought he played Bozo. Idk why I thought he did.

[@tfinferno8611]

Bob Bell was the actor who played Bozo in this video. He was in the role from 1960, when WGN-TV had a predecessor Bozo program from Tribune Tower that primarily showed cartoons, until his retirement from the station in 1984. By then, WGN-TV's "Bozo's Circus" (later "The Bozo Show") had become a national phenomenon from its West Bradley Place studio. It was also aired nationally as WGN-TV was a superstation.

[@pernelldh]

@@tfinferno8611 Fact: According to Dan Castelleneta, who is the voice of Krusty the Clown, Krusty's voice was based on Bob Bell's voice from WGN-TV's Bozo the Clown.

[@goldeneve]

6:56 cooky lol

[@gend3912]

Uhh

[@JamesRomero-ym4rp]

I forgot what the home player was? They got the same prizes ?

[@ringoluv1331]

Yes

[@shelteredshaman5992]

Sounds like Trump

[@purpletomatocinema]

Because that was Trump

[@HyperTimeWaste]

Is it true he got fired for cussing live

[@purpletomatocinema]

I don't know, I'll check and get back to you

[@christiangonzales7429]

@@purpletomatocinema that was a Bozo in a different market, not Chicago. This Bozo show was cancelled due to low ratings and increasing competition from childrens' TV networks.

[@maximusprime3459]

Bob Bell, this Bozo, retired. The Bozo who took up after him in Chicago, Joey D'Auria continued this series until its cancellation.

[@stevemeinecke]

🥴 🥴 🥴 lol

[@timjenkins7019]

Was he drunk?

[@purpletomatocinema]

I think so

[@cpmow831]

Definitely…
