94 Circus-Quality Clown Jokes That You Might Find Terribly Funny

ADVERTISEMENT

A looming entity, shrouded in screaming color, stands guard in a corner with its back turned to you. Slowly, they turn around, and before your brain understands what it sees, your eyes catch the horrible, terribly dreadful image of a face as a white death mask, accentuated by a ruby-red snarl and eyebrows worthy of a Persian princess. Before you know it, the entity conjures up a dove straight out of their ear, releases it, and poof! It’s gone! The terrible nightmare is gone! And that, folks, although a very pop-culturesque image, is no way of seeing clowns. After all, with a profession as old as theirs, they sure deserve some respect and a clown joke or two. We’ll remind you that this is our usual way to show how much we like a subject - by creating an article full of funny jokes about it!

So, this article, full of jokes about clowns, won’t touch on the horror picture image we described at the beginning of this text. On the contrary! These truly funny clown jokes will talk about the rubber-like qualities of their bodies (yes, the classic blunder of a clown car), their Rudolf-channeling red noses, their incredibly large shoes capable of accommodating baby goats, and their slapstick comedy. All in all, it’s a very well-rounded selection of funny clown jokes, talking about each and every aspect of their working lives. Of course, don’t expect these silly jokes to be too serious; they are about clowns, after all!

Now, honk your nose three times and pull your fingers out from under your suspenders - there’s some scrolling to be done! As you well know, the cool jokes are just a smidgen down below, and once you are there, be sure to rank them on a scale from one to clown. Once that is all done, share the best jokes with your friends!
