| − | An American Italian in his early 60s, "Fat Tony" is the head of the D'Amico Crime Family, the prime family in the Springfield Mafia. His fellow mobsters include [[Joey]], [[Legs and Louie]], and occasionally [[Johnny Tightlips]]. Tony's schemes have ranged from supplying rat's milk to the school cafeteria to dabbling in the illegal fireworks racket. His gang also attempts to monopolize various legitimate business. Fat Tony is also a competent violinist.

| − | Fat Tony has been behind most, if not all of, Springfield's criminal enterprises. He and his associates meet in what is known as the "Legitimate Businessmen's Social Club." Tony's rackets include the usual organized crime activities such as illegal gambling (most notably in the episode "[[Homie the Clown]]"), cigarette trafficking, and rum running, but he will sometimes branch out into more unusual activities.

| − | In "[[The Twisted World of Marge Simpson]]" Homer entered a deal with the Springfield Mafia to help [[Marge Simpson|Marge's]] pretzel franchise by driving out rival snack food distributors. Fat Tony demanded 100% of the profits from the business in exchange, only to be stopped by the local [[wikipedia:Yakuza|Yakuza]] (brought in by Marge's rivals). The two gangs then started a mob war (which continued off-screen), with Fat Tony and his gangsters displaying very impressive fighting skills, rather than just pulling out their guns as usual. [[Krusty the Clown]] pays the Mafia to keep [[wikipedia:McDonald's|McDonald's]] and [[wikipedia:Burger King|Burger King]] out of Springfield, so that [[Krusty Burger]] can have a monopoly.

| − | Much of Springfield's municipal government is involved with the Mafia. [[Clancy Wiggum|Chief Wiggum]] has been seen taking bribes from Fat Tony, and in retaliation for a raid on their rat milk facility Fat Tony attempted to take out a hit on [[Joe Quimby|Mayor Quimby]]. In "[[Papa's Got a Brand New Badge]]", Tony put out a contract on Homer after his private security business interfered with the mob's interests. Homer would have been executed gangland-style if not for [[Maggie Simpson|Maggie]] coming to the rescue with her rifle. Marge usually has a more peaceful relationship with Fat Tony, even driving his son [[Michael D'Amico|Michael]] home from school. In the episode "[[Moe Baby Blues]]", she mentions that the Mafia frequently congregates outside her house, and that she often brings them lemonade.

| − | Fat Tony's son appears in "[[The Mook, the Chef, the Wife and Her Homer]]": He had previously been mentioned in "[[Moe Baby Blues]]" and "[[The Seven-Beer Snitch]]". The episode also reveals that Fat Tony's wife died of natural causes, and that he once nearly killed [[Clancy Wiggum|Chief Wiggum]].

| − | == Voice == | + | |E11=yes |
| − | Originally, Tony was going to be voiced by [[Hank Azaria]]. However, since Fat Tony wasn't a very good drawing, Groening decided to make a ''Special Guest Voice'' do him. Groening chose [[wikipedia:Joe Mantegna|Joe Mantegna]]. In one DVD commentary it is stated that Mr. Mantegna is so enamored with the character that he has forbidden to allow anyone else to voice Fat Tony; he even voiced him when the script only called for a couple of grunts ("[[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]]"). However, this didn't stop [[Phil Hartman]] filling in for him on one occasion ("[[A Fish Called Selma]]").

| − | Fat Tony is a pastiche of Mafia characters from movies and dramas, especially [[wikipedia:The Godfather|The Godfather]] franchise (and in later seasons [[wikipedia:The Sopranos|The Sopranos]]). His nickname may be a reference to "Black Tony", the Don of the fictional Stracci family in ''The Godfather''.

| − | "[[Moe Baby Blues]]" featured several interesting references relating to Fat Tony. To entertain his subordinates, Fat Tony puts an orange slice in his mouth in imitation of [[wikipedia:Vito Corleone|Don Corleone]] from ''[[wikipedia:The Godfather|The Godfather]]''. Minutes later, Fat Tony responds to an emotional scene by saying "I haven't cried this much since I paid to see ''[[wikipedia:The Godfather Part III|Godfather III]]''" (in which Mantegna played the character [[wikipedia:Joey Zasa|Joey Zasa]], one of the inspirations for Fat Tony). His son's name is a reference to [[wikipedia:Michael Corleone|Michael Corleone]].

| − | On several occasions Fat Tony's has said something that begins as ominous gang language, only to be proven innocent; one example is "We are going for a ride... By which I mean the carpool". His house also strongly resembles that of Tony Montana's in the movie [[wikipedia:Scarface|Scarface]].
