    It is close to Eugene, Oregon.
  • Actually, if I am not mistaken, it's supposed to be based on Springfield, IL...

    There are a LOT of springfields.
  • Random ChaosRandom Chaos Actually Carefully-selected Order in disguise
    Or maybe Springfeild, VA...

    As he said, there are a lot of Springfeilds...
  • WHY_oldWHY_old Elite Ranger
    Or Missouri, based entirely off the episode with "The Who"...
  • The "Springfield" would have to have a nuclear power plant... and a damn, and docks, and have legalized gambling, and... and... and...

    The episode where Homer points to Springfield on the map but Lisa points to the map going "no your all wrong, that's springfield" just as Bart steps in front of the "camera" is funny as...

    They said they dropped enough hints to drive hardcore fans insane. As a matter of fact, in the "Behind the Laughter" Ep, they said it was in Kentucky.

    At least, they said it in first run. I've heard they've redubbed that line for a different state in repeats.
  • 1st run they said Missouri, on all other airings it's Kentucky.

    Well, the creator did come from Springfield Oregon. So what ever. I never watched the show.

    Its also near the ocean, given that ep where Homer and Bart take Burns' boat into international waters.

    BTW another clue, in the episode where Lisa wants to save a huge tree by camping in it, just before it cuts to commercial, it shows her looking west at a river with a large arch and a town on the other side. Only problem is that it puts her in East St. Louis.

    It couldnt be Springfield Oregon, I mean the Eugene crowd would have already have blown up the nuke plant, and killed Mr.Burns, along with other weirdness, it would make the Simpsons look too crazy!


    (Yes I live in Oregon)

    I love oregon, I just hate fake oregonians, I want them all to move back to california! they dont understand its their attitudes, actions and inactions which destroyed California, now they are doing it here!

    They want to have state medical care (complete coverage) and it will only set our personal income-tax from 9% to 17%! doesnt sound like much, but when combined with the typical federal income tax load, along with other fees and charges, suddenly half your money will be taxed away!

    And worse yet the oregon health plan we have already doesnt pay for certain organ transplants but will pay for an illegial alien (and convicted fellon to boot) to have a sex change operation!

    way ****ed up.

    I do believe though that oregon has a distinct bad smell when it rains.
  • WHY_oldWHY_old Elite Ranger
    Probably just all the pot smoke being blown over from BC [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]
  • croxiscroxis I am the walrus
    Hehe I have friends at UofO.
  • croxiscroxis I am the walrus

    LoL. Well, it does rain more in Hawaii!
  • TyvarTyvar Next best thing to a St. Bernard
    I never noticed it smelled bad when it rains in oregon, I thought that was the normal rain smell! damn the things you learn talking to furiners [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]

    I miss the snow too, but then again, it was never that common anyways, at least it wasnt from 1840 till 1900

    Did you know the willamette actualy had the top freeze solid enough that people were able to drive cars over it? this happend in the 1910's or 20's I belive, and it was right downtown! talk about crazy!

    And as for pot blowing in from BC. ungh there is enough of it here (explains alot of brain dead people I meet)
