At the age of 95 years and still clowning around is what the Montana man has proved to the world.Yes we are talking about Floyd Creekmore affectionately called 'creeky' by his friends. At a time when peers of his age would love to stretch their legs and relax this man does not mind to shake his legs and feet like a clown who is probably 70 years younger than him. Well Floyd Creekmore is supposedly the oldest Performing clown the world is having today.He’s been entertaining people at fairs and rodeos since the age of 10, and he insists he has no plans to sign off his red rubber nose any time soon.
Floyd finds it extremely gratifying to perform the job of a clown.Creekmore has been a clown with the Al Bedoo Shrine Circus in Billings, Montana since 1981. The circus raises money to help disabled and burned kids receive free treatment at Shriners Hospitals for Children.
The eternally young clown owns about a dozen clown costumes, some of which were sewn by his wife and his niece. He says his favorite get-up is a yellow and orange costume with matching orange hair and a yellow bowler hat.
Creekmore enjoys being a clown and loves the idea to bring a smile and laughter on the children's face.In his attempt to make children laugh he also has a philantrophic purpose attached to being a clown on the circus stage.The proceeds of the circus go to raise money for hospitals and providing free treatment for children suffering from injuries.That was a classy act of the man so magnanimous at heart to see the world from a broader angle.
That proves the fact that this desire to restore cheer on the children's face helps to be still rocking high on life even at old age.
