Duff Gardens
Duff Gardens is an amusement park that appeared in "Selma's Choice". In the episode, Bart and Lisa Simpson travel with their aunt Selma to Duff Gardens, a parody of the Busch Gardens amusement park, but also containing elements of Disneyland.
Rides
Bart and Lisa ride "The Little Land of Duff" attraction, where they hear this song (repeated over and over):
- Duff Beer for me!
- Duff Beer for you!
- I'll have a Duff,
- You have one too!
This is a direct parody of the "It's a Small World" attraction at Disney parks. Unlike that attraction, the boats float on a brown liquid, most likely stagnant recycled beer, with hallucinogenic properties, which Lisa drinks on a dare from Bart. Lisa ends with the chills from drinking the brown liquid.
Other Attractions
Other Duff Gardens attractions include:
- the Beeramid
- the Beerquarium ("Home of the world's happiest fish")
- the Beer Hall of Presidents
- Little Land Of Duff
- the Barrel Roll
- the Washing Machine ride
- the Whiplash rollercoaster
- Singing group Hooray for Everything (who sing a politically correct version of Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side" and are based on Up with People), and a direct parody of Disneyland's Main Street Electrical Parade.
In the gift shop, Bart spots "Beer Goggles", a sort of glasses that mimicks what drunks see. Aunt Selma appears young, feminine, and beautiful to Bart and also somehow, alters her voice. Later, they see the mascots of Duff Beer, The Seven Duffs: Sleazy, Queazy, Edgy, Surly, Tipsy, Remorseful, and Dizzy.
