The Chain Boss is an officer in charge of a chain gang in Florida.

History[edit]

After the Simpsons supposedly killed Captain Jack, an alligator living in Palm Corners and symbol of the town, the family is forced to do penal labor in a chain gang. The Chain Boss was overseeing the workers, hitting them with a whip whenever necessary.[1]

He was also in charge of a prison work group that included Sideshow Bob and was cleaning up the highway ditches in and around Springfield.[2][3]

Behind the Laughter[edit]

The character parodies Boss Godfrey aka "The Man With No Eyes" (portrayed by Morgan Woodward), an abusive officer who controlled a chain gang in the 1967 cult movie Cool Hand Luke.
