We have reached the stage of the Great Clown Panic when real clowns have started to worry about profiling. In Johnstown, Pennsylvania, the Cumberland Times-News reports, "members of the Classic Clowns Club have been alarmed by news reports in which police have asked anyone who sees a clown to call 911. The troupe members often travel in costume, and worry that, if someone notices a van full of clowns and calls the police, they could end up in legal trouble."

“Classic Clowns Club”?

So that’s where the generals and admirals go to get a drink.

Not a day goes by that something doesn’t happen that reminds me of a Seinfeld episode.

“If someone notices a van full of clowns”

I see forty or fifty of these vans whenever I go anywhere.

Same here.. Got the DVD set for Christmas a few years ago. Son and I re-watch them when we need a good belly laugh.

Same with the old Three Stooges episodes.

“Calls the police”

Don’t do that.

It’s probably the FBI out looking for Hillary’s testimony.

The police don’t have time for that kind of crap.

And if you go wearing the makeup of Bozo the Clown
You ain’t gonna make it to the outskirts of town
And you know your face will be
All white
And you know your face will be
All white

What if you just wear big shoes?

Do you just get one punch for that?

Have you seen the size of Hillary’s feet?

They can launch F-18s off of one of her shoes!

Her feet are so big that the Bigfoots invite her to their convention.

I mean, her feet are huge!

The Japanese use her as a double for Godzilla movies. She’s crushed Tokyo 18 times now.

Elaine to Jerry:

“It’s pretty sad when your whole idea of classical music comes from Looney Tunes...”

The set is worth having. Completely perfect..

Yeah, I can see the cops pulling over a van full of clowns.
Cop: Ok, you bozos, outta the car!
(1 clown, 2 clowns get out...38 clowns...39...40...41...42...)
Cop: Ok, ok, now stop that!
