| − | An Italian American mobster in his early forties, "Fat Tony" is the head of the D'Amico Crime Family, the prime family in the Springfield Mafia. His fellow mobsters include [[Joey]], [[Legs and Louie]], and occasionally [[Johnny Tightlips]]. Tony's schemes have ranged from supplying rat's milk to the school cafeteria to dabbling in the illegal fireworks racket. His gang also attempts to monopolize various legitimate business. Fat Tony is also a very competent violinist. Fat Tony lives in his mansion, which strongly resembles that of Tony Montana from the movie Scarface, in the upscale residential area of "Springfield Heights", which is also resided by the Jewish entertainer Krusty The Clown and actor Troy McClure. D'Amico has owned several cars such as a black Lincoln Navigator, white Dodge Caravan and an Isotta Fraschini Tipo 8B.

| − | Fat Tony has been behind most, if not all of, Springfield's criminal enterprises. He and his associates meet in what is known as the "Legitimate Businessmen's Social Club." Tony's rackets include the usual organized crime activities such as illegal gambling <ref>[[Homie the Clown]]</ref>, cigarette trafficking, and rum running, but he will sometimes branch out into more unusual activities.

| − | [[Homer Simpson]] once entered a deal with the Springfield Mafia to help [[Marge Simpson|Marge's]] pretzel franchise by driving out rival snack food distributors. Fat Tony demanded 100% of the profits from the business in exchange, only to be stopped by the local [[wikipedia:Yakuza|Yakuza]] (brought in by Marge's rivals). The two gangs then started a mob war (which continued off-screen), with Fat Tony and his gangsters displaying very impressive fighting skills, rather than just pulling out their guns as usual <ref>[[The Twisted World of Marge Simpson]]</ref>. [[Krusty the Clown]] pays the Mafia to keep [[wikipedia:McDonald's|McDonald's]] and [[wikipedia:Burger King|Burger King]] out of Springfield, so that [[Krusty Burger]] can have a monopoly.

| − | Much of Springfield's municipal government is involved with the Mafia. [[Clancy Wiggum|Chief Wiggum]] has been seen taking bribes from Fat Tony (although at the same time Chief Wiggum also tries to hunt him down even going as far as to compare Tony as being a cancer to Springfield, and tries to compare himself to the cure for cancer), and Mayor Quimby is more often than not in on the bribing procedures. Once, Fat Tony bribed Mayor Quimby to allow him to deliver counterfeit milk to the schools, and left Quimby under the impression that he intended to use dog's milk or higher. After his bodyguard, Homer Simpson, stumbled upon the milking facility and blurted out that they're actually milking rats, Quimby was outraged. In retaliation for a raid on their rat milk facility, Fat Tony attempted to take out a hit on [[Joe Quimby|Mayor Quimby]]. Tony once put out a contract on Homer after his private security business interfered with the mob's interests. Homer would have been executed gangland-style if not for [[Maggie Simpson|Maggie]] coming to the rescue with her rifle<ref>[[Papa's Got a Brand New Badge]]</ref>. Marge usually has a more peaceful relationship with Fat Tony, even driving his son [[Michael D'Amico|Michael]] home from school. She mentions that the Mafia frequently congregates outside her house, and that she often brings them lemonade<ref>[[Moe Baby Blues]]</ref>.

Fat Tony also has a teenage son, Michael, who he drives to school. He is a widower and refers to his wife's death as; "She was whacked, by natural causes." Fat Tony and his associates meet in what is known as the Legitimate Businessman's Social Club.
Fat Tony died of a heart attack after Homer betrayed him while working undercover for the FBI [1].
On several occasions Fat Tony's has said something that begins as ominous gang language, only to be proven innocent; one example is "We are going for a ride... By which I mean the carpool" and "Now who's ready to sleep with da fishes?... Because I brought this Finding Nemo comforter!" This also led to some confusion among his fellow mafia members, such as the time when Troy McClure was involved in a scandal involving a sexual attraction to fishes, and he told his fellow gang members that he was "sleeping with the fishes", causing them to misinterpret the meaning to Troy having died when he was actually meaning that McClure was literally sleeping with the fishes. His house also strongly resembles that of Tony Montana in the movie Scarface.
