Location Information

Dead Lobster is a restaurant located on Fast-Food Boulevard in Springfield. It serves seafood, specializing in lobster. It was destroyed in an explosion caused by Homer Simpson.
History
Homer took a drive down Fast-Food Boulevard for a junk food binge just before starting a new diet. Among the foods he ate was a dish he crafted himself: a pizza from Luigi's Pizza, sprinkled with fries from Krusty Burger and topped off with a lobster, apparently from Dead Lobster. After putting in the lobster, Homer closed the pizza box, shook it and devoured the whole thing, box and all.
During his stop at Krusty Burger, Homer saw a drive-up wastebasket and decided to use it to dispose of all of the accumulated trash in his car. Among the items Homer threw out was a leaky car battery. Acid from the battery dripped into the ground and then onto a gas main, causing a gas leak. Meanwhile, Homer finished with his trash, lit a cigar, and tossed the lit match into the wastebasket. The match's flame ignited the leaking gas and triggered a chain-reaction explosion which destroyed every restaurant on Fast-Food Boulevard, including Dead Lobster.
Behind the Laughter
- The restaurant's name is a pun on Red Lobster, an American seafood restaurant chain.
