Character Information

Rabbi Hyman Krustofski is the Jewish father of Krusty the Clown.
History
Hyman Krustofski was born on June 7. 1929. He became a respected Rabbi in Springfield's Lower East Side. He had a son, Herschel Krustofski, who wanted to become a clown instead of a Rabbi, against his father's wishes. Hyman abandoned Herschel after he saw him perform as a clown on stage.
Years later, Bart and Lisa found out about Herschel, a.k.a. Krusty's abandonment from his father and they did everything they could to convince Hyman to reunite with his son. After several attempts, Lisa eventually convinced Hyman to change his ways by quoting from Sammy Davis Jr.. Hyman later met his son backstage on the Krusty the Klown Show, and the two embraced after many years. Hyman Krustofski appeared in front of the audience playfully throwing a pie at Krusty. [1]
When his son decides to get a Bah Mitzvah, Rabbi Krustofski said he never gave Krusty one because he wouldn't take the ceremony seriously. Homer was given a show during Krusty's time-slot and it was so popular that Krusty's show was cancelled. In a move of desperation, he decided to televise his Bah Mitzvah. It proved to be extremely successful, but disappoints Hyman. Krusty then decided to have a real Bah Mitzvah in a real Shul, which pleases his father. [2]
