Near and Far

A classic routine performed by Grover on Sesame Street many times. This sketch invovled grover running back and fourth, demonstrating the difference between "near" and "far".

Grover first performed this sketch during the first season, when he was gray green instead of blue. This sketch was remade sometime in the early 1970s.

Grover also demonstrated near and far in the middle of the song Over, Under, Around, and Through.

Grover once performed this act with Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show in the 1970s.

In the late 1990s, Grover demonstrated the difference between near and far on a surf board.
