The Ajax Steel Mill is a steel mill in Springfield. During breaks from work, it doubles as a gay nightclub called The Anvil.

History

When Homer was concerned that Bart was gay, he took Bart to a steel mill to show him an example of real men hard at work. Roscoe, the mill's manager, gave them a tour which Homer enjoyed, until they met the rest of the workers. When Roscoe asked the workers to say hello to Homer and Bart, they all waved and said "Hel-looooooo!" in a sing-song, stereotypically effeminate fashion, and Homer saw that all the workers in the plant were openly homosexual.

Roscoe then pulled a chain which made music play and a disco ball descend from the ceiling, and all the workers started dancing with each other, turning the steel mill into a gay nightclub, called "The Anvil". Roscoe said that after working hard, they played hard.

Homer then beat a hasty retreat from the steel mill, covering Bart's eyes as he backed away.
