Re: Bozo the clown has died
Fortunately for Youtube, many are still with us, and others resurrected. Here's a flashback if you were around in the 70s.

Re: Bozo the clown has died
Some people have a fear of clowns, not just kids but adults. I have met several people over the last few years and was very surprised that so many had this fear.
From wikipedia:
Coulrophobia is an abnormal or exaggerated fear of clowns. It is not uncommon among children, but is also sometimes found in teenagers and adults as well. Sufferers sometimes acquire a fear of clowns after having a bad experience with one personally, or seeing a sinister portrayal of one in the media. A design study carried out by the University of Sheffield found that children are frightened by clown-themed décor in hospitals. This fear can arise from seeing a clown in person, or in pictures

I never had a fear, I just never found them remotely funny. I never understood what people found amusing about clowns, or anything else at the circus.
