Channel 4 came down to the Carousel Collision auto shop in Coney Island(parent company to the Underground Clown)to tape a segment on how the clothing company came together. 10 years ago a friend of ours Corey Pelzer was murdered on a crowded city bus coming home from work to which the killer walked off the bus and no one saw or heard anything till this day. The Underground Clown was created to keep his name alive of a person who was into fashion and ahead of his time. Every purchase made, proceeds go to a foundation and a scholarship that has been made in this name.
We brought down our good friend and former Welter Weight Champion Paulie 'Magic Man" Malignaggi and he spoke about his involvement with the company and also how he felt about the violence that is going on in the community. The CEO of the company Frank spoke about the impact of losing a close friend and also about the parent company. Tiffany, Corey's sister also was interviewed and spoke about her feelings relating to her brothers murder and hopes of the case being re-opened and also maybe someone will speak up and help bring the killer to justice.
We made sure that channel 4 left with some Underground Clown apparel for the great work they did for us. The segment will air soon and we will have the time and date. Stay tuned.
