SPRINGFIELD — "The Simpsons" TV show has become a cultural phenomenon. Even though their town would be the worst city in America if it were real, we still want to visit Springfield.
Well, now you can — kind of.
Universal Studios in Florida recently opened The Simpsons Fast Food Blvd.
The new attraction is next to The Simpsons Ride and gives fans an opportunity to eat at familiar haunts like The Frying Dutchman, Luigi's Pizza, Cletus' Chicken Shack, Krusty Burger and, of course, Moe's Tavern.
The outside looks like the real-life version of the stores we've always wanted to frequent, but the inside is really just a glorified food court.
You know what, though? I'm OK with that.
In the food court you can get favorites like a Krusty Burger, a Meat Liker's Pizza, Clam Chowd-arr and, of course, a Flaming Moe (non-alcoholic).
If you visit this Simpsons paradise, remember you're in an amusement park and will be forking out 10 bucks to enjoy a Krusty Burger and 8 bucks to enjoy a Flaming Moe.
So, if you're a safety inspector in Sector 7G, it may be a little rich for your blood, especially after you pay $92 for one ticket to get into the park. However, if you own the power plant that houses Sector 7G, you should be just fine.
