Sightings of him have become so common in fact that a Facebook page entitled 'Gags - The Green Bay Clown' has been set up to provide witnesses with a place to upload their photographs.
No conclusive explanation for the phenomenon has yet been found however one commenter has claimed that the clown may have been part of a short horror film being shot in the area.

Sightings of strange clowns have actually been on the rise in recent years with multiple prominent cases occurring in France, England, Australia, New York and California.

The most recent, which took place at Carroll University in Waukesha, Wisconsin, involved a local teenager who had been dressing up as a clown in an effort to scare unsuspecting passers-by.
