BOZO the Clown

My Wife bought a red clown nose and hung it from my rear veiw mirror this morning.



It honks. She thinks that when I open the door a dozen clowns are going to rush out.

I feel like thats something my lady friend would do.. in fact when I was deciding between the MINI and a GTI, she scoffed and said, "You're deciding between a clown car and a cut-in-half station wagon!"

You should one up her and put 6 buckets in the back with a brand new, crisp $100 bill in the 6th bucket.

If you a referring to my post about the buckets. I am referring to a game on the Bozo the Clown Show which aired on WGN in Chicago and probably on WGN America as well. The game was called "The Grand Prize Game."

The game worked where a boy and a girl would be drawn from the audience based on their ticket.

Then you had to toss a ping pong ball into the 6 buckets in sequential order. As you did this each bucket came with prizes, the more buckets you made the more prizes you would receive.

At the start of the game Bozo would always place a Brand New Crisp $100 bill in the 6th bucket. If you made the sixth bucket you got all the prizes and the bill. I believe that the 6th bucket prize was a bit different in the earlier years of the show. However, When I was growing up in the 90's it was the prize.

No problem, I think you really needed to grow up in Chicago to really know about it. WGN is a fairly local channel and I don't know when WGN america came to be.
