[edit] History
This man ran a school bus into Grumpy, accidentally killing him. A moment later, after the money was loaded onto the bus, he looked around confused and asked "Bozo", who was the Joker, "What happened to the rest of the guys?", whereupon the Joker shot him dead with his machine pistol.
[edit] Behind the scenes
- It is currently unknown if the Bus Driver had a callsign like the rest of the thugs involved in the robbery. One possibility is that like three of the others, (Grumpy, Happy, and Dopey), he may have taken his name from one of the Dwarfs in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The four unused names were Doc, Sleepy, Sneezy, and Bashful.
Another possibility is that he took a name from a fictional clown character, as with Bozo (the Joker), and Chuckles. This could range anywhere from Clarabell, to Ronald, to Krusty.
