TRIVIA TODAY - Wednesday, April 28, 2010

Greetings Infomaniacs,

I'll never forget going to see the Bozo the Clown show when
I was a child. It was so exciting to see Bozo and his friends
in person and be a part of the live audience. I dug up a
little history on the famous clown and how he got his start...

Enjoy!
Melissa

In 1956, Larry Harmon bought the rights to the Bozo
franchise and sold local versions of the show to multiple
markets across the U.S. By 1959, he had 100 Bozos in the
United States, plus clowns in Germany, France, and Japan.

***

The most famous Bozo the Clown is probably former Today
Show weatherman Willard Scott. Harmon's personal favorite,
however, was Boston's Frank Avruch.

***

In 1965, Harmon tried to market Avruch as the only Bozo but
met resistance from many stations who wanted to keep their
own clowns.
