Homer Simpson Appears in Valencia After Falling Through a Wormhole Behind the Sofa
The yellow family patriarch baffles tourists at the City of Arts and Sciences while searching for donuts and beer

In an event that defies all known laws of physics and the barrier between fiction and reality, the city of Valencia woke up today to a visitor as unexpected as he is iconic. Homer J. Simpson, the patriarch of television's most famous family, materialized right in the heart of the City of Arts and Sciences, causing stupor among tourists and locals. According to initial reconstructions of the events, the incident is not due to a viral marketing campaign or a costumed actor, but to an inexplicable quantum phenomenon linked to the search for a lost peanut.

From the Evergreen Terrace Sofa to the Turia

The events occurred at approximately 9:30 AM local time. Eyewitnesses report that the air near the Hemisfèric began to vibrate with a purplish hue, accompanied by a sound similar to a jammed industrial vacuum cleaner. Suddenly, a dimensional rift opened, ejecting Homer Simpson, who landed on a horchata stand, exclaiming his characteristic "D'oh!"

"I was walking the dog when I saw a blinding light. At first, I thought it was some out-of-season Fallas show or an experimental mascletá, but then I saw that bald yellow man in a white shirt screaming for a Duff beer. He seemed as solid and real as us, but with his cartoon proportions," recounted Amparo Mínguez, a resident of the Monteolivete neighborhood.

Sources close to the investigation suggest that Mr. Simpson, a habitual resident of Springfield (state unknown), was in his home looking for the remote control or a snack under the cushions of his sofa. Apparently, the accumulation of dirt, radiation from the nuclear power plant where he works, and the instability of the space-time fabric in his universe generated an Einstein-Rosen bridge—commonly known as a wormhole—that directly connected his living room with the capital of the Turia.

Police Confusion and Local Gastronomy

The Valencia Local Police arrived at the scene after receiving multiple calls alerting them to an "individual with severe jaundice disturbing the peace." Upon attempting to identify the subject, officers found a wallet containing unusual documents, which has hindered the standard bureaucratic process.

  • An expired Springfield Nuclear Power Plant ID.
  • A membership card for the Stonecutters club.
  • A discount coupon for the Kwik-E-Mart.
  • Half a sandwich that, according to the subject, had been there "since season 4."

Far from appearing distressed by his interdimensional displacement, Homer Simpson has taken advantage of his stay to explore Valencian gastronomy. At noon, he was spotted at a restaurant on Malvarrosa Beach. Witnesses claim he tried to order a "paella with extra pork ribs and donut glaze," a request that was politely rejected by the chef, who offered him an authentic Valencian paella instead.

"Mmm... rice with yellow things..." he was heard murmuring with satisfaction while scraping the plate clean. "Tastes better than Santa's Little Helper's leftovers."

The Scientific Community, Perplexed

Dr. Vicente Llopis, Professor of Theoretical Physics at the University of Valencia, has traveled to the cordoned-off area to study the energy residues still lingering where Simpson appeared. Llopis warns that the presence of a two-dimensional being in a three-dimensional environment could have catastrophic consequences for the structure of reality, or at least for traffic on Professor López Piñero Avenue.

For the moment, authorities have decided to keep Homer in a secure area set up in a nearby hotel, where he is being supplied with a constant stream of cable television and snacks to keep him calm. It is expected that Lisa Simpson or Professor Frink will soon make contact from the other side to reverse the process and return the family man to his sofa before he causes a diplomatic incident or attempts to eat a ninot from the upcoming Fallas.
