VIDEO: Clowns Are Dying and It's No Laughing Matter

Apparently, clown membership has been dropping for years; are we headed for a clown crisis (and a world that's slightly less horrifying)?
Published

Our nation's clown reserves are at an all-time low. In fact, membership in the World Clown Association has dropped by 1,000 over the past decade to a mere 2,500 clowns.

In this brief — yet lively — video, our experts examine if our country is headed for a Clown Crisis and whether or not we should just let clowning die out.

What about you, readers? Should we try and get kids interested in becoming clowns, or should we let this art die out? Tell us in the comments below!
