Jumbo's Clown Room

Jumbo's Clown Room, often shorthanded to Jumbo's, is a "bikini bar" (non-nude strip club) located on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, California. The bar opened on July 27, 1970, and later became a strip club in 1980. Jumbo's Clown Room embodies the burlesque spirit more than its counterparts in Hollywood and farther west.[1] Some of the interior and front of the Jumbo's Clown Room building is shown on the video for Let Me Go by 3 Doors Down. The front of Jumbo's Clown Room building is also shown on Penn & Teller: Bullshit!, season 4, episode 8, entitled "Manners". The place is also known for having Courtney Love working as dancer in the early 90s.[2] Jumbo's Clown Room is featured in, and plays a key role in the plot of, the 2007 remake of The Wizard of Gore. Jumbo's Clown Room was also mentioned as an obscure reference on Conan O'Brien's TBS talk show, Conan, during a 2015 interview with Aziz Ansari. "That's a great joke if you know what Jumbo's Clown Room is."[3]
