− | ==Character History==
| |
− | He is an active member of the [[Springfield Republican Party]] and speaks with a heavy Texan drawl. In the fifth season episode “[[$pringfield]](Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)” (his debut), Homer addresses the Rich Texan as Senator, although this was never mentioned again. The Rich Texan sports a bolo tie and a white cowboy hat. He is also obsessive-compulsive, as revealed in "[[The Seemingly Never-Ending Story]]." In "[[Marge's Son Poisoning]]," he states that he enjoys moonlight walks on the beach; in the same episode, he holds [[Homer]] and [[Moe]] at gunpoint while forcing them to walk along with him after being conned by the two. He is well known for pulling out a pair of revolvers and firing them into the air while yelling "Yee Haw!" whenever he is happy or excited. In "[[Pray Anything]]," he goes over the top and loes his mind after doing something generous for [[Ned Flanders]]. He has been to jail at least once when one of his stray bullets hit a Texas Ranger <ref>Episode 309, Dude Where's My Ranch</ref>. The police made him switch to blanks, but he noted that "They just don't feel the same". In "[[Midnight Towboy]]", he revealed he suffers from pogonophobia (the fear of beards and moustaches); he then promptly shoots a man dressed as Santa Claus. He has a gay grandson, as revealed in "[[Million Dollar Abie]]", a possible reference to US Vice President Dick Cheney's homosexual daughter. He has a daughter named Paris Texan, a play on Paris Hilton and Paris, Texas. In the episode" [[Revenge is a Dish Best Served Three Times]]," it is revealed that he is from Connecticut. This may be a possible reference to George Bush, as he was also born in Connecticut, but acts as though he was born and raised in Texas. He is oftern mistaken with [[Antoine Tex O'Hara]]. In The Simpsons HD intro, Rich Texan appears while Bart is skateboarding through town and shoots his pistols at Bart, but fails.
