He’d BETTER not have put them there for the purpose of gambling. Or maybe that’s just squirrels, and only illegal in Springfield…
Haven’t heard this story. Please enlighten.
In the ‘Simpsons’ episode parodying ‘Cape Fear’, the police chief quotes an archaic Springfield law that makes it “illegal to put squirrels down your pants for the purpose of gambling”.

Already mentioned here.
It’s mentioned in a different thread too. This is the only one specifically about it though.
No, they’re a pest here like everywhere else. I’d speculate that these are some valuable variety of collector’s or racing pigeon, rather than the usual rat-with-wings.
