19 of the Strangest 'Simpsons' Merchandise Available from The Wonderfully Weird to the Downright Insane
I can't remember my life without The Simpsons — and that's mostly because The Simpsons have been around nearly as long as I've been alive. I grew up with Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie as my guides to the universe. Needless to say, they've prepapred me pretty well for the insanity that life has thrown my way. The creations of James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, and Sam Simon are celebrating their 25th anniversary and I think they all deserve a resounding "WOO HOO! "The Simpsons aren't just cartoon characters, they're an entire brand, a language, and even a way of life if you will (NA NA NA NA NA NA NA NA LEADER!) Being the world's most recognizable family isn't due merely to the show's success and cult-like following. Nay, we know the citizens of Springfield so well because, well, they're everywhere.
From lunch boxes to boardwalk T-shirts, to grand works of art and Duff beer cozies, you can find The Simpsons on almost everything. Some Simpsons gear is as amazing as a Squishee on a hot Summer day, while others are as terrifying as Sideshow Bob after a prison break. Let's take a look at some of the most bizarre Simpsons merch out there.
