[YouBettaBelizeIt1]

[HYPNOGLANCE87]

[mindtrip142]

@sauroid1 How were u on it in Boston when it was a Chicago show doofus

[Michaelred73]

Do you remember them being mean to you? Read my description of video response!!!



[TheCurter]

How did you find your tape? I'm looking for episode with my dad on it

[SquireCD]

@TheCurter Sorry to be of a little help, but my mom and dad hung onto the tape. So, I didn't have to go find it or anything. Good luck though!

[arlichar11]

your mom seems cool.... and nice looking too...

[sauroid1]

I was on the Bozo show in Boston when I was 5 in 1963. My mother had a friend who worked on the show and I went to the top of the waiting list. When Bozo came out he scared the hell out of me, he yelled alot also. I totally freaked out and a guy behind the camera, probably the director, started jumping up and down and pointing at me. During the commercial break some guy come and pulled me off of the set. To this day I can't be around a clown.

[Acefan66]

Bozo aka Gary Weir was the real deal for us kids here in Arkansas!!

[thughes12054]

[acdcfan1]

That bozo is a fraud!

[omfg4000]

lol used with permission ;D awesome dude.

[XxVideoXkidxX]

Is barabbas's music still anywhere on the internet?

[dietGTcola]

Was more than one bozo in the USA with a tv show so everyones was different. So i wouldn't call it fake.

[nogoodbastid]

whoa whoa whoa, wait a minute here. bozo doesn't have a southern accent! this is a FRAUD!

[thedailyconspiracy]

Say Charlie have you ever seen a grown man naked? lol

[SquireCD]

@thedailyconspiracy

I've seen a few pornos in my time, so I guess I'd have to say yes. Although, I was paying a lot more attention to the females in said videos. Why do you ask?

[ricarleite]

@SquireCD You DO know it's a line from "Airplane", right?

[thedailyconspiracy]

I always wondered what happened to you :) Cool Vid

[smokymtnmomma728]

My son was on the Bozo show too, when he was 4 years old. I had to put him on a 4 year waiting list, never thought it would pan out, but it did. He was on there in 1983..and the Channel was KATV 7

Brings back memories! Son is almost 32 years old now! Thanks for sharing

[beetlejes]

LMAO.....Yeah this wasn't the Bozo show that I remember, but that is pretty cool. Hilarious!

[DEGrimProductions]

Charlie, can you tell me what year this was and wich channel Bozo was on at that time? Thanks.

[staceytrim]

so cute

[keithautry]

that was a fake bozo...... the original bozo was on wgn chanel 9 chicago il... all ather bozez are bull shit!!!

[SquireCD]

@keithautry LOL. Right you are, sir. But, it was a big deal to me when I was 4 :)

[TheJomogogo]

@keithautry

Sorry, but the original Bozo The Clown started broadcasting in 1949 on KTTV in Los Angeles.

It was one of the earliest TV shows

[ironmancwb]

@TheJomogogo  Chicago> OG Bozo , fuck you

[chriskoederSr]

@keithautry  Hell Ya!

[JPSelf12]

I won the kick the balloon in the barrel contest in '72 and Bozo ( Gary Weir ) still kicks ass @ OAKLAWN. So all you laid up asses can fo' ! Stupid bitches. GO HOGS!

[arlichar11]

whoa..thats not bozo i remember, i would be jealous, but not same effect, no cookie either i bet...wtf

[Auron46]

kind find the bozo show i was on my name was danell walker but its darnell logan now could u find it plz

[SquireCD]

@Auron46 Even if I had the slightest clue what the fuck you were talking about, I probably couldn't help you out.

[Auron46]

@Auron46 oh shit i fucked up the spelling but u say u cant help so never mind

[JBHutto]

Does anyone know where I can find any footage of Joey D'Auria as Bozo?

[EddieGoregor]

ok I stand corrected on the abbreviations for Arkansas. The directive to abbreviate all states using the first and last letters was rescinded, alas to much confusion. So you win on that one. But your Bozo was still a chump and as an adult you yourself ought to be able to shelve that shit for what it was. You grew up and guess what? Here is where you are with it! If any one needs meds its you. you just couldn't agree he was a hick rip off and leave it at that? As an adult? You are a dick.

[SquireCD]

@EddieGoregor I tried to read back through the youTube comments to figure out just what the hell you're going on about, but I failed to figure it out. I may be a dick, but you're a douche.

[EddieGoregor]

@SquireCD See? you are a dick. Try the very first comment! All I said was he was a "hick, Mock, Bozo". Now to make my point to you. (Because you are a dick) If you understood that Frank Averuch was without a doubt "The Bozo" who's character was so good, all others were modeled after his made famous characterazation. In spite of the fact he wasn't "The First Bozo" by no means. If you had any empathy or perspective at all, you could have started a conversation, but "Dicks' don't do that..do you?

[SquireCD]

@EddieGoregor You need to calm down, man. Relax.

[friendofaemt]

@EddieGoregor JUST FYI .... his name was Frank Avruch .... make sure you know who he is and the correct spelling before you try !

[FlyOverHayseed]

Your Bozo sucked.

[SquireCD]

@FlyOverHayseed Yeah, I know.

[SquireCD]

@FlyOverHayseed Agreed.

[batavias]

the perv asked if you wer abiextrious!!!! lol

[SquireCD]

@batavias Uhm.... You should google that word...

[batavias]

@SquireCD ambidextrous, oops yep i spelled it way the hell wrong the first time.... good looking out...lol

[EddieGoregor]

That ain't the "real" Bozo you Bozo! That's a hick mock Bozo from AS. The real Bozo was in NYC.

[SquireCD]

@EddieGoregor It is Bozo because it was the Bozo Show. Yes, it was not the first Bozo from Chicago. But, I was 4, it was the Bozo Show, I was on it, thought it was neat, and I put it on youTube. If this somehow offends your sense of right and wrong, then... man, you're depressing and sad. Also, Arkansas is AR -- not AS.

[EddieGoregor]

@SquireCD Jesus OK OK calm down dude! Haha! Its obvious YOU are somehow offended by that! Dude I'm 54 ok? I didn't write in trade insults. Grow up yourself. I just thought it may have explained the "Weird Questions" psychological damage you suffered. (and still suffer from LOL!) He was trying to feel you out for inbreeding maybe? Now that you are big and in AR (I was told abbreviations are first and last letter here in NJ. AS? for you I'll add one more "S") And yes thank you! I am Genius

[SquireCD]

@EddieGoregor You calling me and my family a hick while using the word "ain't" and saying Arkansas is "AS" (rather than "AR")... dude, you're the fucking hick. Learn 2 English.

[EddieGoregor]

@EddieGoregor I didn't call you a hick at all?(but I suppose the inner guilt is there.) Look dude. Any (even 4 year old kid) who gets a chance to see the real Bozo then sees a fake and can't tell the difference is mentally passe. Up here we knew we were being duped by hacks, so go untie your childhood knots and ask yourself? Why the fuck would I feel the need to post a Utube like that then explain it in the way you did. You began this whole exchange merely because I said he was fake. BoF'inhoo!

[ebarnes419]

Wow clean your house you fuckin slob!

[SquireCD]

@ebarnes419 Not my house. But, fair enough.

[06C6Z06]

Damn man, I forgot all about that Bozo. I grew up in Hot Springs and remember watching him as a kid. I stumbled across your vid while searching for the "grand prize game" from the bozo show in Chicago.

[puppetmaster983]

Hmm... that Bozo doesn't look like the one I remember...

[SquireCD]

@puppetmaster983 Yeah. It was our local version. The southern Bozo, I suppose. He had a southern twang in his voice. I'm sure he wasn't the guy from Chicago. Just some small time guy they pretended to be the real when to get people like my parents take their kids to the show. I was happy though :)

[pmgeiger]

Duh, it's not him, he died several years ago...

[SquireCD]

@pmgeiger Wow. People still say "duh"?

[gavmad77]

this isnt thereal bozo

[1977kb0wqh1996]

Now, I don't remember Bozo like that when I watched him on WGN Chicago. I know he didn't have a southern accent. I was not aware there were Bozo Shows in other regional TV markets. The maker of this video states he grew up in Little Rock, AR. Neat!

[EddieGoregor]

@1977kb0wqh1996 Ya exactly! No southern accent. Look there were fake Bozos up in the huge TV markets too. They all failed Why? Even kids at 4 years old sense "wait a minute!?...who is this Bozo? And that's why for a while in the 70's you'd hear from TV executives say "...Ya he's just another Bozo from...(in this case Arkansas! LOL) They were all over the fuckin place! This guy bough into it and because it was his "special" experience he had to post it for the whole nation to what? CRY?

[BeautifulAlicia]

lol sooo cute! I was on that show also...i was 8 and did the flipper race and we lost cuz the kid after me got his shoes caught in the flippers lol!

[unklebluto]

yeah I was on twice, 5 yrs old/7yrs old in chicago the real bozo " bob bell", no video in those days just pictues mom took of the TV.apparently grandma ordered tickets when i was born, thats the only way I got there.

[yamahonkawazuki]

@unklebluto yup i lived there as well for most of my life. until maybe 10 years ago. i remember bell. that bozo and cookie combo IMHO were the best one/s

. i went to see the show several times, and still have the schwinn bike i won there

[bluegrassman776]

thats not the bozo show in chicago. dude come on

[SquireCD]

@bluegrassman776 Yeah, I realize that's not the original Bozo.

Do you run around at McDonald's pointing at Ronald McDonald saying, "B..BU...BUT...!!! THAT'S NOT HE ORIGINAL!!!"

God, I hope you do.

[EddieGoregor]

@SquireCD Ya I'm with Bluegrassman776, shit we pointed out about 10 or 12 of those phony Ronald MacDonald Mothers! (Especially the ethnic ones! They're easy especially the oriental ones, black ones too, unless the make up man is really good!) What else you gonna do when your trying to eat what you just ordered and some fucking clown is in your face trying to convince everyone "he's the real deal" You know what? Fuck your whole Bozo memory! and I hope he morphs to Pennywise and you freakout!

[SquireCD]

@EddieGoregor Wow... You need some Xanax, man. Calm down.

[EddieGoregor]

@SquireCD AHHH Haha Haha ROFLMFAO!  Gee Whizz Bozo can you put a long balloon on a skewer, shove it up my ass then blow it up? Ahhahahaha!

[SquireCD]

@EddieGoregor I suggest you hire a hooker to listen to your problems (surely, your own mother wouldn't listen to your nonsense) before you start bombing hospitals or something. Seriously, dude. You need to calm down. Take a deep breathe. Chill out.

[SquireCD]

@bluegrassman776 I don't recall saying it was the "100% true authentic Bozo Show from Chicago!". It was the southern local version for some small network TV thing I was more than happy to be on when I was 4 years old. If you feel that this is such an outrage, then... You need some prozac. I'll even pay your medical bills.

[ManYooFooty24]

clean that fucking dump house up, jesus christ.

[SquireCD]

@ManYooFooty24 It's not my house, but yeah. My parent's are messy. But, thanks for pointing that out. You're an absolute douche.

[dahoss65]

Why was your mom putting on Bozo makeup?

[Jay1973L]

Good stuff. I always wanted to go on the Bozo show when I was a kid.

[etherealstill]

That's funny. I always wonder what happens to the kids on game show appearances. Good thing you didn't end up like that kid on Magnolia.

[sweetsymphony27]

Wow, you got to be on the show!...I used to watch that among many other shows when I was little. Did you get to play that bucket game. The closest I got to that is at Peter Piper Pizza, now as a grown up, throwing little ping pong balls into a bucket.

[orchdorkpride]

This made me laugh I loved the Bozo show!

[Bradman77]

wow that was mean.... remind me to put you on my prayer list at Church

[vw24vr6]

WOW THAT BOZO SUCKS

[drmoonrat]

That was a fat bozo. I think he was trying to mess you up.

[4thtroika]

At least you didn't tell him to cram it.

[SquireCD]

@4thtroika Hah. Maybe I should have!

[toadsniffing]

yeah dude bozo was messing with you. lol. i remember seeing this as a kid. my favorite show of all time. I lived in Memphis, TN at the time but never saw Bozo after the age of 4 when we moved out to California. :(

[farietails213]

too stinkin' cute!

[ColombianDark]

i used to watched that every day. such cool prizes. looking bk. its wierd.

[ziggy72170]

Oh Yeah!! Bozo in the morning,, we watched that religulously in my family !! Ha,Ha. eating french toast & bozo's Buckets... (thanx squire)..

[MrsSoucie2Be]

That was great lol.....will see ya yater bozo.

[overtoke]

wow, bozo was totally fucking with you! he must have know you were high!

[daleboyrdm]

haha bozo & charlie's mom sound like a couple of hicks.

[SquireCD]

@daleboyrdm We are all from Texas. I guess I should thank you for leaving me out of your comment? I'm glowing at the happiness it gives me to know that you approve of my speaking voice. Thank you, sir, for you a gentleman and scholar.

[WROGIE80]

I'm jealous of everyone who got to be on the show with bozo. I woulda kicked ass on the grand prize game

[cliffycliff1260]

How can I obtain episodes of the variety shows or archives during 1967 til 1971

[kcjones78]

That was cute, you were four-don't think he made you into a liar! I always wanted to be on the show so I could play the 'Grand Prize Game' I was sure I was going to get all the buckets and get the best prize! Or at least be the at home player...but sadly no.

[MarieElenahowmany]

I was also on the Bozo show when I was 4 yrs old! I don't know exactly when and my parents are gone so, I can't ask. But, I was able to play a game! And Won!!! LOL

[MrStyle23]

That was so funny to me but it could be because it is 2:15am!

[blowfun]

To me, clowns aren't funny. In fact, they're kinda scary. I've wondered where this started, and I think it goes back to the time I went to the circus and a clown killed my dad.

[hunt12887]

Who is that dude?

[lema2010]

your band name sucks...haha, they even make fun of it in the movie 24 Hour Party People

[theadditude]

Cute and talented...How did you learn to play all those instruments so young?

[aintpluggedin]

man, bozo was on to you :-). dont know about this bozo, but we had the real bozo out of chicago in the early 60s....he was stupendous.

[yecallekim]

i always wanted to play the bucket game! Bozo forever!

[staceytrim]

@yecallekim  me too!!

[CHEETAHSDEN]

Loved the video and your mom cracked me up as well xoxo Cheetah

[CHEETAHSDEN]

[george319]

[ToneJermain]

Bozo was drunk...lol...i don't remember that country ass version of bozo

[garrettsambo7]

You were a cute little kid.

[erico26cat]

boy that bozo was real country with that southern accent!! i remember the bozo from chicago! i used to make fun of my grandma because she had hair just like bozo when she woke up. lol good times!!

[dontreallyknow]

I don't know whats more hilarious.

The bozo clip.

Or that ego of yours.

[maffei1]

it's called bozo's big top man!

[dallenwood]

Ya, I liked how he was asking you all of those questions, funny stuff..

And ya he did die, but youve probably already read it. RIP Bozo.

[sissy22374]

do u remember the name of the game where the kids threw the balls in the popcorn baskets???

[SquireCD]

I don't remember the name of that game, but I can put the tape in and get the name next time I'm at my mother's house =)

[Cubfan2240]

I remember as a kid calling it Bozo Buckets, but then again when i was that age I called McDonalds burger-fry place. It was a really good show.

[nerff61571]

it was called "The Grand Prize Game"

[shyma21]

Where did you get this video? I was on the show in like 89 or something but I have no idea how to get the video.

[SquireCD]

They filmed the show in Little Rock, Arkansas. Bozo came to the city for just one day, and my parents somehow got a ticket for me to appear on TV with him. I think I said all of this in the video =P

[CaptDouchebag]

You were a cute little black kid.

[dms78]

Redneck Bozo

[SquireCD]

Yeah, the Little Rock Bozo was totally redneck haha.

[Marshaljr15]

he's cute as a kid and HOT now...lol

[dajzilla]

Bozo died today at the age of 83. Dead clown. Kinda creepy huh.

[SquireCD]

Did he really die??

[MoskvaKalls]

"Hey buddy, stay in your lane!"

[MrSteve05]

clean ur damn house lol

[CutieCallie]

Aww. You were adorable as a kid!

[SquireCD]

Thanks :)

[soontobesize12]

I just heard he died today.... its makes me sad!

[mrlexus]

lol dude that great that you still have that tape. I don't even know where my tape that I was on Bozo years ago. so was that ch. 4,11 or 16

[greenboy7187]

i remember when i was a kid i was in the show too but im not sure if i could ever find the footage... i never actually got to say anyhting on the tv but i am having flash backs of being in the awdience and my friend winning the screeming contest thing and being so pissed i also remeber watching it at hom like a few weeks later and only seeing my self for like two second son the tv lol

[mrhocuspocus]

Pretty sure his mom said "quit fucking living in the past" the first time.

[SquireCD]

...what?! lmao

[bananamanfan007]

he creeps me out...

[MoskvaKalls]

Yeah, but that's the appeal of clowns.

[rockwellcm]

Pedo Fuck

[SquireCD]

As far as I know, Bozo doesn't fuck children. He just screws with them some.

PS: Stop trolling my videos. You're a sad, old, and pathetic person.

[rockyrack1]

That's a bogus Bozo. I thought it was gonna be the real Chicago one.

[SquireCD]

It's not a bogus Bozo. They held millions of them all over the country, and this was the one they aired where I lived.

[ARose4Me7305]

How great. I actually grew up in NW Arkansas and was a HUGE Bozo fanatic. I'm so jealous of you! :)

[SquireCD]

North Little Rock in Jacksonville, very close to Sherwood. =)

[coreymedo]

hahahahahaha bozo schooled you dude. i always dreamed of being on the show.
