Well remember that story we posted a few days ago about the location of Springfield not being known? Well the competition has been completed and a new home for the famous yellow family has been found, the new place is Springfield, Vermont.
Well that is good that it has finally been announced, I bet the people in the small Vermont town are happy about that. They were a late entry and beat out all the other competitors with 14% of all votes, with there closest competition having 13%, close call.
The town has roughly 9,300 people and managed to rally the townspeople through local media and mass email (need I say fucking spammers!). They will get the yellow carpet and the voices and everything at there humble little town. Here is some more information on the winning entry
The winning entry took two days to film with help from the Vermont Film Commission. It begins much like the opening sequence of the TV show, with the familiar theme song playing as Vermont’s Homer chases a giant doughnut (actually an inner tube designed by a local graphic artist) through the town, causing mayhem wherever he goes. The townspeople chase after him until they are beckoned into the movie theater, where they sit down for the premiere of The Simpsons Movie.
Well sounds all fine and dandy. I did find a good little article on the location of the yellow people, if you have the time, I suggest you head on over and have a read of it, the article is located here
