Willie the Clown

 
 
Emmett Kelly , the man behind the clown character weary willie was born this day in 1898. Weary Willie was a sad faced clown who carried around a sack on a stick. Weary Willie was inspired by the hobos of the Depression era. Weary Willie is the clown that came to sweep up the three rings after other circus acts, and try as he would he was always unsuccessful in sweeping up the pool of the light of a spotlight.
