Any Simpsons fan worth his salt would remember the basic outline of the family's Big Apple visit: The family car affixed with a boot outside the World Trade Center; Homer suffering various affronts and drinking too much crab juice; the rest of the family riding idyllically through Central Park. But did you know … that episode also marked the first appearance of Duffman as a character? (You probably did. Nerds.)
We have brought back a few favorite frames of this, the first episode of season 9, titled, "The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson."
