To re-elevate the BOZO characters visibility, DIGNEY invented the BOZO AWARDS for copyright owner Larry Harmon Pictures. For a decade, it was a staple press event the day after Thanks-giving, one turkey follows another, quipped Digney at the time, lampooning the rich and famous who had slipped on a banana peel sometime during the year. The awards became so famous that the lampooned started asking to be sent their awards.

One of the all time great PR stunts was Digneys creation of the BOZO for PRESIDENT campaign in 1984 which kicked off in all seriousness at the National Press Club in Washington, where the Washington Posts lead political writer called the candidate Mr. Bozo and TIME Magazine dedicated a full- page of coverage including photos at the White House.
