Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Krusty held a telethon to raise money for what illness?

Answer: Motion sickness

This telethon took place in episode 8F20, "Black Widower". During the show, Krusty forgives Bob for framing him for armed robbery. This parodies the reunion of Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin during a Labour Day telethon.

2. Nelson Muntz is a counselor at Kamp Krusty.

Answer: False

Nelson isn't a counselor, but Dolph, Jimbo and Kearney are. Their duties include forcing the campers to eat the gruel and forcing them into rickety rowing boats during storms.

3. When his show is in trouble, Krusty seeks advice from which former host of "The Tonight Show"?

Answer: Johnny Carson

Steve Allen was the original host. When he left, Jack Paar became the next host. A few months later, Johnny Carson took the limelight. Jay Leno became the host in May 1992. In episode 9F19 "Krusty Gests Kancelled", Carson appears as himself and is one of the celebrities to take part in "The Krusty Komeback Show", alongside Hugh Hefner, Bette Midler, Luke Perry, Elizabeth Taylor, Barry White and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.

4. Krusty is a member of the Stonecutters.

Answer: True

The Stonecutters parodies another top secret organisaton known as the Freemasons. Both have secret rituals and signs, but the Stonecutters' rituals all involve beer, ping-pong and hitting each other with paddles.

5. What bill does Krusty like to use to light his cigarettes?

Answer: $100

He also uses priceless comics and pearl necklaces and eats omlettes made from the eggs of endangered condors. Unsuprisingly, this leads to his near bankruptcy.

6. What basketball team did Krusty bet his money on in an attempt to pay his debt to the mob?

Answer: The Generals

The Generals lost horribly to the Globetrotters. Krusty claimed that he "thought the Generals were due!" In all fairness, the game was fixed, as the Globetrotters were using a ladder.

7. After Krusty fakes his own death due to tax problems, what new pseudonym does he adopt?

Answer: Rory B. Bellows

Krusty takes up the career of a fisherman, but hates being out of the public eye. He fakes the death of Rory B. Bellows and collects the large life insurance to pay off his taxes.

8. What is Krusty's connection to Elvis Presley?

Answer: Both their careers began in Tupelo, Mississippi.

Krusty began his career as a street mime in Tupelo. It was also here that Elvis got his 'big break' that started him on the road to stardom.

9. As a young boy, Krusty frequented what shop?

Answer: Yiddle's

Yiddle's specialises in practical jokes, magic tricks and medical supplies. Tanner's is a shop in Krusty's neighbourhood, and the other two are made up from Krusty's name: Herschel Krustofski.

10. When Krusty discovers people think his jokes stale and offensive, who does he ask to update help him update his act?

Answer: Jay Leno

After a few false starts, Krusty starts telling it like it is, and becomes immensely popular. He eventually loses his newfound credibility by endorsing a car.
