Does Bozo the Birthday Clown count?

Here is one you may enjoy,



My Dad designed a/c units for highrises thus much of his time was spent away from home on job sites throughout the country.



My aunt (Moms side) entered my mother in a show called "Queen for a day". She was chosen so she went. During the game the host asked Mom how many children she had..... seven was the answer. "So, asked the host, can we have your husband stand up". "He's not here, he is out of the state". The show went on and an explanation as to why this womans husband was not here was never had.



A few days after the show charity organizations were showing up at the house with large amounts of food as well as baby goods etc. Mom explained that we were doing just fine and to take the stuff to the needy, most insisted that the must do what they are told to do and please accept this until you get settled in and get help from relatives and such!



Mom still laughs about this.

P. S. Bill, Did you really see Bozo?

 

[illflem]

Yep, and what freaked me out was when he shook hands with me his glove and sleeve separated and I saw black skin underneath. Not that I have anything against colored folks, but it sure burst my five year old Bozo bubble.

Bill, Did you go to KCOP on La Brea and Willoughby to see Bozo? I grew up 3 blocks from there!

Mike, too young to remember but my moment of fame aired on channel 13 in LA.

There used to be a show in K. C. called Junior Auction. It was sponsored by Kitty Clover Potatoe Chips. My younger brother and sister and I were on the show and won the big prize, a Scwinn single speed bike for my sister.

Well, I was in a version of MTV's singled out at a frat house several years ago. Too bad that I knew some of the guys runnin the event. I got fed ALL of the right answers. For those that dont know, the tv game show, the girl is asked the questions ahead of time, and the guys are asked at the same time and each move towards the girl when the answer is right, and move back when the answer is wrong. I never stepped back. But she did when she saw me. Oo. The rest of that night is not very well known. There was another guy who tied me, and the tie breaker was who could eat a bowl of cornflakes and old milwake the fastest. It went down hill (or uphill depending on your point of view) from there.

yes, I did win, but she lost.

Not really, but one of my not so elegant landings made it on America's funniest home videos. No cash though, guess I needed to bif a little harder

Game show

When I was in Jr. High, 9th grade, i was on a show called "It's Acedemic" or something along those lines. Me and 2 girls against another school. It was on the local TV. I never did get a tape of it though.
