Trivia[]

  • The scene where Bart speaks through fifteen megaphones in a row and blows out all the windows across Springfield went viral and the later result became a popular Internet meme.
    • Bart's megaphone prank was later tested in real life at a baseball park. The results showed that, contrary to what the show indicated, the sound didn't actually grow louder as a result of the megaphones being connected to each other, but instead grew distorted due to a feedback loop.
