The Northern Irish Leprechaun is a leprechaun from Northern Ireland. He resembles the traditional Irish Leprechaun, except he wears all orange to show his support for the Orangemen (Protestant Unionists). He looks like his counterpart except he has bushy eyebrows and mutton chop whiskers and wears a frock coat with tails, a white dress shirt with a bow-tie, and a top hat.
History
He is first seen leading the Protestant St. Patrick's Day Parade (in which the marchers wear orange clothing) in opposition to the Catholic St. Patrick's Day Parade (who wear green clothing). When Bart asked Lisa what they are fighting over, she sighed and responded "It always comes down to trans-substantiation versus con-substantiation."
Lisa tried to calm the mobs with an Irish lullaby, which moved them to hugging and crying. However, the Northern Irish Leprechaun soon started viciously battling it out with his Catholic counterpart after the Catholic Leprechaun sucker-punched him. During the ensuing melee, Marge commented, "This was such a pleasant St. Patrick's Day until all the Irish people showed up!"[1]
When the town was divided over whether or not the Simpsons should share the money from a painting they got from the Van Houtens he was for the Simpsons to share the money.[2]
