Homer Simpson has been inducted to the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The induction ceremony took place on the 25th anniversary of "The Simpsons" episode "Homer at the Bat", reported Rolling Stone.
"It's one of a long list of things with The Simpsons I never dreamed would happen," executive producer Al Jean said.
The episode included voice cameos by then-MLB players Wade Boggs, Jose Canseco, Roger Clemens, Ken Griffey Jr, Don Mattingly, Darryl Strawberry, Mike Scioscia, Steve Sax, and Ozzie Smith.
Hall of Famers Boggs and Smith, Simpsons executive producer Mike Reiss, director Jim Reardon, executive story editor Jeff Martin, casting director Bonnie Pietila, and a Homer mascot were present at the ceremony.
"My record for eating hot dogs will never be broken. I've been a fan for 40 years, which is how long some games take. And I can't wait for the ceremony in Canton, Ohio," Homer said in a prepared statement.
