R.I.P BOZO

Bozo the Clown passed away earlier today at 83. Well at least the man who portrayed Bozo passed away. Larry Harmon was not the first Bozo, but was largely hailed for honing the clown's trademark look by adding orange clumps of hair, the big red nose and that crazy red, white and blue costume. He trained over 200 Bozos around the country.
He asked to be buried in full costume. Five hundred years from now an archaeological team will unearth his tomb and ask the question, "What kind of Bozos were these people?"
