Bozo the Clown passes away
Categories: Fun & activities, Life & style, In the news, That's entertainment
You may not recognize the name Larry Harmon. But if you were a kid twenty to thirty years ago and you spent some time in front of the television you probably saw him and didn't even know it. Harmon was Bozo the Clown. Now, at 83, the man who brought us one of the few entertaining and not frightening clowns has passed away.
Harmon, who died last Thursday of congestive heart failure, was not the original Bozo, but bought the rights to the character and made Bozo what he is to us today. He also trained over 200 other Bozos to carry on his work of delighting children and letting them try to win cool toys like bikes with that ball in the buckets game. Remember that one???
Harmon gave Bozo his distinctive look with the large organge hair and large shoes. He will be missed!
