When a comet threatened to wipe out Springfield, the cities extra thick layer of fog and nuclear vapour helped burn it up and diminish it to the size of a Chihuahua's head. The small remains of the comet landed in Springfield without demolishing anything but a vandalized (and thus obscene) weather balloon (Big Butt Skinner) and Ned Flanders poorly constructed bomb shelter.

This little comet that fell to Springfield underlines the cities ridiculous amount of luck as well as their near-criminal environmental policies.

The comet can be seen, at the Simpson's family home at Evergreen Terrace. Ten-year old ruddiger Bart Simpson will show the comet too anyone who asks provided that they pay him 5 American dollars and do a dead on impression of Huckleberry Hound

2. The Donut - Anchor

Its History

When the city lost control of its much-speculated monorail on its maiden voyage, train operator Homer Simpson of Evergreen Terrace showed uncharacteristic quick thinking by tossing out the open window an impromptu anchor out of a large "M" from the logo outside the trains cockpit. As the poorly assembled transportation system on its erratic course, the "M" finally caught onto this humorously large donut replica, bringing the runaway monorail to a stop.

Historical Significance

Great. This cement and chickenwire faux pastry saved dozens of lives and ended Springfield's monorail madness which degenerated towns like east Ogdenville and north Haverbrook.

Where It can be seen

Anywhere from up close to miles and miles away. That's one big freakin' donut.
