This could be the greatest news for Simpsons obsessives since those 7-Elevens were converted into Kwik-E-Marts to celebrate the release of the Simpsons movie.
Springfield, home of the three-eyed fish and hometown of Jebediah Springfield, is becoming a reality at Universal Studios’ Orlando amusement park.
While rumors have been floating for a while, Universal Studios officially announced today that they are expanding the area around the Simpsons Ride in Orlando to include an entire area that mimics the streets of Springfield. “And yes – there will be Duff Beer,” a release said.
Some of the attractions will include a Krusty Burger, a Lard Lad donuts, and, of course, Moe’s Tavern. There will also be a new Kang & Kodos-themed attraction. (Personal hope: the gift shop only sells “Bort” license plates.)
I’m thrilled. Also, can I just say it’s about time? I mean, Harry Potter fans have an entire Wizarding World of fun, and while I’m totally happy for them, it brings me great joy to saySimpsons fans will get to enjoy the Krustyest place on earth.

Well that's pretty awesome, I must say. But since it's in Orlando there's no reason not to have Mt. Splashmore. I have always dreamt of riding the H-2-Whoa!
Excellent point!
Things they also need:
- The Android's Dungeon comic shop
- The Jebediah Springfield statue
- Itchy & Scratchy Land
- Krustyland studios
- the box factory
- nuclear power plant ride
Oh yeah, the box factory, definitely.
