Nantucket is a small island located off of Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

It was the "Whaling Capital of the World" during the late 18th and early 19th centuries and also known for the "There once was a man from Nantucket" opening line to dirty limericks.

History[]

Temperance Barrows and the other characters from the romance novel The Harpooned Heart by Marge Simpson live on Nantucket. While writing her book, she is surprised to learn that Nantucket is in fact an island.

While eating at the Americatown restaurant during a vacation in Japan, the family are seated at a table shaped like Massachusetts with Maggie's highchair shaped like Nantucket. Homer claims he knew a man from Nantucket, and told Bart when asked who he is "Let's just say the stories about him are greatly exaggerated."
