It might seem a little odd to some people, but the annual clown procession in Mexico is a religious tradition in the nation's capital city.
And for these professional pranksters, it's no joke.
A clown named Garbancito said it's their way of giving thanks.

:
[Interview : Garbancito, Clown] "To give thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe for everything, for all the work given to us daily, as well as the gift of being a clown."

The Virgin of Guadalupe is the patron saint of Mexico and is revered by millions of the Roman Catholic faith.
Members of the Clown Club of Mexico have been making the annual pilgrimage to the basilica for over 30 years, where they pray and ask the Virgin to watch over their friends and family.
