Like Patty and Selma, he was a chain smoker. While he was courting his future wife, he sent her a box of candy with his photo in it. After that, she never forgot him. Marge suggested that Homer try the same thing when he was upset because Mr. Burns did not remember his name.[6]
At some point he also served in the United States Navy where he picked up a swearing problem, which nearly cost him his job as a baby photographer. To solve this problem, his wife put a swear jar in the kitchen, and every time Clancy said a bad word, he had to put in a quarter.[7]
Clancy was one of the earliest male flight attendants, a job he held when Marge was a child, although he was ashamed of it, and told her he was a pilot instead. This was discovered when Marge boarded his plane to see her "pilot" father, but when she sees him performing stewardess duties, he yells at her not to look at him. This, along with several other plane-related mishaps, may have resulted in Marge's fear of flying.[8]

Clancy Bouvier left $1,000 a month in his will to Marge to make sure she was okay for if she ever needed to leave Homer.[10]
According to Lisa Simpson, her grandfather, Clancy died in a freak rollercoaster accident.[13]
