Clowns in old TV ad's
 

If I was a kid and saw this on the screen I'd scream and hide under the bed, and never turn on the TV again!

Might make a dandy Avatar though! :D

:eek:I can see why clowns frighten so many people, they don't scare me, I just think they're in bad taste. I'd just scream "Get that trash off my Magnavox!":eek:

I was in Australia with my grandson and the Easter Bunny walked up to his stroller whilst I was putting groceries into the car. The little guy screamed and started crying, he was 15 months old. Bunny turned and politely walked away. And a very sophisticated elderly lady walked up to me and said, "Wait until he sees Father Christmas!" I felt bad for the little guy but inside of me, when that lady said that , I LMAO!

I didn't know that politicians could time travel back to those days , put them selves on the screen of a tv in an ad and then travel back to the present time, i guess they finally have control of the time tunnel.

By gosh you are right Mike. :D

I never watch CSPAN... :D Thus no clowns on my TV...

Make me think of Crikey The Clown off Agro's Cartoon Connection http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_gdXMjC3QQ which was an Aussie cartoon show I use to watch as a kid lol. Never been afraid of clowns, I use to think they were just dumb lol. Just had a funny thought and that is to take that picture advert and superimpose a picture of America's insult comedian Yucko The Clown http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c97vzkoG3Q over the original picture and photo edit the superimposed picture to match that of the advert to make it look like the real deal lol.

And I did just that lol!:lmao:

Well if we're going to use Photoshop...:D

:eek:

LOL! :lmao:

Oh, Dear Lord...That guy's been gone what, 20 years or so now, & his story STILL gives me the willies...

Makes me think of that movie 'It' based on Stephen King's book about a demonic clown that would lure small children into the sewers and well you can pretty much figure out the rest...:eek:

Even worse if you were a kid living just a few miles away from him back in the 70s like I did. Once his old address leaked out, it became a macabre tourist attraction. Even after it was torn down.
