Character Information

Frank Sinatra (1915–1998) was an American actor and pop singer. He was best known for being a founding member of the Rat Pack and for his hit recordings of the 1960s such as "Strangers in the Night" and "My Way".
History
Bart answers the door to a man who has "a special delivery for Homer Simpson". Bart, expecting a package under Homer's name, says "that's me". The man punches Bart in the nose, remarking "don't write no more letters to Mr. Sinatra". [1]
When Disco Stu visited Praiseland to get a miracle from the statue of Maude Flanders, he had a vision of Heaven as a huge discothèque. Stu was surprised to see Sinatra there, but Sinatra told him, "For me, this is Hell. Ya dig, pally?"[2]
Behind the Laughter
- Songs recorded by Sinatra have appeared in other episodes of the show:
- "Summer Wind" (sung by Martin Prince) is played at the end of "Bart of Darkness".
- "South of the Border" is played over the closing credits of "Kamp Krusty". However, the singer is not Sinatra, but a sound-a-like.
- The heavy punching "Homer" for hassling Sinatra is a reference to his infamous alleged organized crime links.
