Clown Pie I Need Some Pictures.

I've been trying to find some pictures of clowns having pie fights and the such to try and develop my own slapstick routines. If anyone has any pictures, links, or anything else, please post them here. Thanks!

There are plenty of youTube pie fights. The kicker is that those people generally are getting their kinky kicks out of the mess and have no idea of proper technique or anything clown related. In this day and age there is very little messy slapstick used. Pies in particular are almost never used by real clowns. Physical comedy, yes, all the time. So again, watch the classics.

I have never been a fan of pie throwing but that 3 Stooges clip is hilarious! I think a pie fight would be cool in a stage setting but not just clowning around or in parades. Old schtick can be funny again in the right context though.
