Character Information

Carl Carlson, Sr. is the adoptive father of Carl Carlson.
History[edit]
A thousand years ago, the Carlsons served as watchmen on the coast of Iceland, keeping their eyes out for invading hordes. However, when an invasion came, the Carlsons stood back and let it happen. Since this event, the Carlsons believed the story to be false and insisted their ancestors had fought bravely against the invaders. However, their family was considered pariahs and had to stay away from the rest of the locals.
After Carl and his friends won the Springfield Lottery, Carl took all the money and left to go back to Iceland. He planned to buy the missing page of his family's saga and clear the family name. While in Reykjavík, Carl stayed with his parents at 22 Hjorleifsstræti. After Carl bought the missing page, Homer, Lenny, and Moe tracked him down and took the page off him, as they felt like they were also owners of it since it was bought with their money. The three then translated the page and found that the Carlsons not only let the invasion happen, they also took part in it. After finding this out, they decided to instead tell everyone of all the good deeds Carl had done for them. The locals then decided to forgive the Carlson family and Carl Sr. and Sigrin were embraced into the community.[1]
Carl had a picture of his parents in his house.[2]
