History

Jacques in the Simpsons Movie.

Jacques offers to teach Marge Simpson to bowl after she receives a bowling ball for her birthday. He is captivated by Marge and slowly tries to woo her. While at brunch, which Jacques explains as "not quite breakfast, not quite lunch, but you get a slice of cantalope at the end". Jacques finds the courage to ask Marge back to his apartment in Fiesta Terrace. He ends up alone when Marge chose to stick with her true love Homer. Marge believed that his last name was "Brunswick", because it was engraved on his bowling ball yet that was really only the brand of his ball.^[1]

He once placed a classified ad in the Springfield Shopper, offering ladies "bowling" lessons. He assured complete discretion and demanded that a photo be included with every response.^[2]

He is later as a part of a bowling team called the Home Wreckers, consisting of Princess Kashmir, Mindy Simmons, and Lurleen Lumpkin.^[3]

He took part in the world's tallest human pyramid record attempt.

He is seen as part of the angry mob trying to find Homer.^[4]

Personality
