Coach Krupt is a sadistic gym teacher at Springfield Elementary School who is obsessed with the game Bombardment.

Bombardment consists of Krupt hitting students with dodgeballs thown at full force. Krupt is relentless in playing the game, even ignoring medical orders that would excuse his students from participating (and prevent him from assaulting them). Bart sneaks a peek at Krupt's calendar and sees that Krupt has Bombardment scheduled for every day, with "Double Bombardment" on Christmas Day. Krupt also plays Bombardment with bread rolls in restaurants[1].

Krupt even brings Bombardment into academics: When the entire school gets involved in preparing for the Vice President's Assessment Test, Krupt drills his students with test questions while he drills them with dodgeballs[2].

Even when he's not playing Bombardment, Krupt still conforms to the "sadistic gym teacher" stereotype and finds other things to obsess over. One day in gym class, the scheduled activity is rope climbing and it's Milhouse's turn to climb, but the rope has disappeared. Krupt tells Milhouse to climb anyway, forcing him to pantomime climbing a rope[3].

Coach Krupt is athletic and in good physical shape, as one might expect of a gym teacher. When Bart tries to give Krupt his comeuppance by throwing an iceball at him, Krupt nimbly ducks out of the way and the iceball ends up flying out the gym window and then destroying Groundskeeper Willie's shack[1].


Krupt comes to Springfield Elementary as a substitute for gym teacher Ms. Pommelhorst, who is taking a leave of absence to undergo sex reassignment surgery. He has a wife and two children, a boy and a girl[1].

Trivia

  • It is possible that Coach Krupt's surname is derived from the word "corrupt."
