Pac-Man was a classic arcade game made by Namco and licensed by Midway.
History
Homer once watched a recording of an old Super Bowl half-time show wherein a news reporter was announcing the wedding for Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man. The ghosts were there too as they danced to the song "Physical".[1]
When Homer joins The Who, he sings a verse from the song "Pac-Man Fever".[2]
Comic Book Guy owns a shirt that says "I've got Pac-Man fever, give me a Tetris shot".[3]
At an arcade when Mr. Burns calls Homer a "Fat Round, Yellow Oaf", Homer thought he was referring to the Pac-Man machine he was standing by.
Trivia
Pac-Man has also been spoofed as other game titles in The Simpsons such as Pac-Rat and Prac-Man.
