Character Information

Coach Krupt is a sadistic gym teacher at Springfield Elementary School who is obsessed with the game Bombardment.
Bombardment consists of Krupt hitting students with dodgeballs thown at full force. Krupt is relentless in playing the game, even ignoring medical orders that would excuse his students from participating (and prevent him from assaulting them). Bart sneaks a peek at Krupt's calendar and sees that Krupt has Bombardment scheduled for every day, with "Double Bombardment" on Christmas Day. Krupt also plays Bombardment with bread rolls in restaurants[1].

Krupt tells Milhouse to climb anyway, forcing him to pantomime climbing a rope[3].
