    • Trivia
      Grandpa Simpson mentions Eddie Gaedel, the shortest player in major league baseball. Edward Carl Gaedel was an actual player for the St Louis Browns baseball team in 1951.

      Weighing 65 pounds and standing 3 feet 7 inches tall, Gaedel became the shortest player in the history of the Major Leagues. He made a single plate appearance and was walked with four consecutive balls before being replaced by a pinch-runner at first base. His jersey bearing the uniform number 1/8 is displayed in the St Louis Cardinals Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum

    Mark Zuckenburg and Muhammad Yunas as themselves,
    Loan a Lisa is a great Simpsons episode guest starring creator of Facebook and billionaire Mark Zuckenburg and a small cameo as shown on Lisas lab top from Muhammad Yunas,both of them playing themselves.

    Grampa gives each of the Simpsons $50 and they each try to find a way to spend it,and Lisa uses the money to help Nelson Muntz out for his new bike company,but when he starts making a lot of money,Nelson considers to drop out of school.

    Meanwhile Homer and Marge keep buying expensive things from the mall and returning it without any damage done making them not have to pay all the money for it.
