No visit to Springfield is complete without a visit to this
otherwise unassuming working class house. A two story house located on a
quiet residential neighborhood, it is the home of the Simpson family, who have
been at the heart of almost every major event in Springfield’s recent past.
It was here that the fortunes of the state were decided,
when Marge Simpson spiked Montgomery Burns’ gubernatorial campaign in the
notorious Blinkygate. The investigation into the later shooting of Mr. Burns
also led to the front door of 742 Evergreen Terrace when it was discovered that
baby Maggie pulled the trigger.
Just precious
This family has also been involved in
racketeering charges and international espionage rings, as well as the fight
against Springfield’s outdated prohibition laws.
Homer, the father of the family, was launched into
space, had a successful recording career, invented the famous drink the
Flaming Homer (also known as the Flaming Moe) and still managed to hold down
his job as a safety inspector at the local nuclear power plant.
This house has proven so popular that it has been the site
of uncountable celebrity visits. Tourists will be amazed at the list of famous
people that runs from popular recording artists to Stephen Hawking.
Tours are available at almost every time day or night, and
run about half an hour each. Admission is free, but be prepared for the gist
shop where a large amount of merchandise, most of it now outdated, is
available.
Remember when this was considered "edgy?"
