Matt Groening Leaves Artwork as Tips
Ok, so most Simpsons' fans know that Simpsons' creator, Matt Groening, is from Portland, Oregon. And it seems that Groening does in fact still live here, at least part-time.
Some time ago, Groening visited the restaurant that I work in, and he left this awesomeness behind when he left.
Pretty cool, eh?
When I spoke with another Portlander foodie industry pro, he said that Groening had left a similar doodle at the Heathman, and it featured Homer. At first, I was jealous, but then realized that Bart and Lisa may be cooler overall.
On a side note, I had no idea that the Grizzly Adams/Wolfman-type that came in for happy hour was Groening. Me -- a huge Simpsons fan -- and I never put it together. He is a lot grayer than I would think, but I do remember seating Groening and his companion at their table, and they were extremely nice.
