Joggling does not require a red nose

Posted on July 26th, 2007 by Average Joggler

Here’s an example of why it’s unfortunate juggling is associated with clowns.  This  is a print media ad put together by the Y&R Agency for readers in Australia and New Zealand.

The picture is amusing enough but jogglers are not clowns. Neither are jugglers for that matter. Joggling IS a sport.  No red noses are required.

Weird World of Sports indeed!  I really prefer the term “eccentric”.

    When I used to juggle regularly, I frequently had to deal with the clown comments. I just acted like I had no idea what the person was talking about.

    I knew it! It’s now in print so I can actually BELIEVE it now! LOL. People associate juggling with clowns because the two are most often seen together. This is a classic case of guilt by association! But we all know better :-)

    Yeah, I stopped wearing a red nose back in 1995.
