| The '''Clown-a-Round''' is a boss in ''[[Wario World]]''. He is a clown-like character fought in [[Wonky Circus]]. The battle takes place on two platforms, connected by a tightrope that Clown-a-Round crosses over by calling for a huge ball with [[Glue Globe]]s on the side. Clown-a-Round can be followed by [[Wario]] grabbing on to a Glue Globe. The Clown-a-Round has several heads, so his outer head is not his actual one. The Clown-a-Round attacks by taking off its head and flinging it and others at Wario. The heads are able to charge up and ram Wario, or hop around and float back up the arena if [[punch]]ed off. The Clown-a-Round less commonly attacks by throwing the ball to the other platform, causing a huge explosion, if Wario does not grab on a Glue Globe successfully. The attack is dodged if Wario enters one of the small alcoves. Clown-a-Round's real face is revealed as its other heads are being thrown around, leaving it vulnerable to attack and being [[Mega Toss]]ed off stage by Wario. Each time Clown-a-Round loses a health icon, a Glue Globe falls off of its ball. When the Clown-a-Round has only two health skulls remaining, the heads that he spawns split into two when first damaged.

| | '''Clown-a-Round''' is a strange, clown-like boss in ''[[Wario World]]''. He is fought at the end of [[Wonky Circus]]. The battle takes place on two circular platforms, connected by a tightrope. When wanting to cross over to the opposite side, Clown-a-Round calls for a huge red-and-white ball with [[Glue Globe]]s on the side. Wario cannot cross the tightrope himself; he must follow Clown-a-Round by grabbing onto a Glue Globe and hitching a ride. |

| | Clown-a-Round's apparent "head" is not really his head at all. After landing on one of the platforms, Clown-a-Round will take off his "head" and fling it, along with other, similar ones, at [[Wario]]. The disembodied heads can still hop around and will even float back up to the arena should they get punched off. The heads may charge up and ram Wario if they get the chance to do so. Clown-a-Round usually lets his heads do the attacking; his only other attack is shown when Wario fails to grab onto a Glue Globe on the giant ball. Clown-a-Round will hurl the ball to the other platform, causing a huge explosion. Fortunately, two small alcoves can offer Wario protection from the attack. |

| ==Notes==
| | To damage him, the player must wait for Clown-a-Round to begin throwing his heads around. He will then become vulnerable. The player should then daze the boss with a few punches, and use a Mad Move to lower his health meter. Whenever the boss loses a health skull, his attacks will become faster, and one of the glue globes on his ball will fall off, making it harder and harder to hitch a ride. But keep trying, and when beaten, he gives Wario access to the boss of [[Spooktastic World]], [[Dual Dragon]]! |
| *The Clown-a-Round is the only boss in the game to not be completely destroyed after being defeated, as one of his fake heads is left behind upon defeat.
| |
| *If the Clown-a-Round is left alone for a while after he removes his "heads", he will bow to the screen and laugh.

| [[Category:Clowns]] | | ==Appearance== |
| [[Category:Wario World bosses]] | | Clown-A-Round at first resembles a happy circus clown. He is tall and round, and wears a red suit with a white frilly collar and dark green boots. His false head wears a happy expression and a red-and white striped party hat. After removing his false head, we see that he has no real head or neck, and that is face is attached directly to the place where his neck should be. His face consists of two demon-like eyes and a mouth with sharp teeth. |
