According to Walker, a murder on the 4th July weekend of 1965 precipitated the arrest of all the street people in the area. In the crowded cell, a disheveled homeless old man began to talk to Walker who had been arrested earlier for drunkenness. The man told various stories of his life but the tone darkened after 'Mr. Bo-jangles' recalled his dog who'd been run over. Someone then asked for something to lighten the mood and the man obliged with a tap dance.
Walker mentions that all the men in the cell had nicknames to prevent easy identification by the police. The dancer's nickname was 'Mr. Bojangles.' In his autobiography 'Gypsy Songman,' Walker makes it clear the man he met was white. Further, in an interview with BBC Radio 4 in August 2008 he pointed out that, at the time, the jail cells in New Orleans were segregated along color lines.

Get the wang jangle mug.A key jangler or key jangling refers to anything that attempts to entertain the audience with the same (for example) jokes, one-liners, pranks, skits, (etc.) or anything similar which expects the audience to burst into laughter. Key jangling goes back to how a parent would jangle their keys in front of their baby to make them laugh or to distract them, which often works however, eventually becomes stale and unfunny over time as the baby would simply get tired and annoyed of the same material.
This term actually comes from one of Huggbees (A YouTube channel) videos titled: "The Forgotten Absurdist Comedy" from 0:20s onwards. He describes how:
"The current trend of comedy from sources such as YouTube, skits and TV shows coming from awkward dialogue, awkward characters and awkward pauses tends to just be one joke that they stretch for about 20 minutes to you."
and
"Modern internet memes are the comedy equivalent of this:" *proceeds to be a key jangler and jangles his keys in front of the camera while reeling YouTubes vast meme compilations behind him*
