But the highlight of my weekend was getting to meet Robin Eurich, most recently of the Bozo Show. He was Rusty the Clown, sidekick to Bozo. When the show was canceled, I was sorely disappointed, as Rusty the Clown was pretty much my favorite clown. One of my favorite things about him is his "A.D.D."-type movements. His feet are always moving, he is always moving, and I'm sure the Bozo show cameramen had a lot of fun trying to figure out where he was going to stand all the time.
He was so personable, and we had some interesting conversations. Turns out the Rusty character is his, he gets to keep it and can perform as Rusty whenever and wherever he wants. And that is the character he played in the benefit show during the reunion. I was really excited to meet him in person, and even more excited to find out he's such a nice guy.
And of course, I got pictures! I also took a lot of other pictures, which you can see on my FLICKr pages.
