The Tam O'Shanter Connection

Location Information Town: Springfield Use: Shop First appearance: "Blood Feud"

The Tam O'Shanter Connection is an Irish boutique at the Springfield Mall.

History

Bart and Milhouse walked past the store when they were alone in the mall at night. They used an inflatable raft to go down the escalator in front of the store.

Behind the Laughter

A "tam o' shanter" is a name given to the traditional Scottish bonnet worn by men. The name of the hat is derived from the poem "Tam o' Shanter" by Robert Frost. Despite being Scottish in origin, the store appears to be Irish, with shamrock imagery.
