UPDATE: These pictures are fake. Michael Price, a current Simpsons writer asked Matt Groening if they were his. He tweeted:
@theleanover @simpsonology @thatbilloakley @tubatron Matt Groening looked at those pics just now & immediately said they're NOT his.— Michael Price (@mikepriceinla) September 4, 2012
@theleanover @simpsonology @thatbilloakley @tubatron He also said he has no memory of ever being in a Bennigan's.— Michael Price (@mikepriceinla) September 4, 2012
Original Post:
Not long after The Simpsons premiered in primetime, show creator Matt Groening apparently drew a few doodles on Bennigan’s napkins for a waitress at the restaurant.
She recently showed the now 22-year-old drawings to her son, Redditor FixerOfDeath.
Her son, who thought the Bart art was "pretty awesome," posted photos of the drawings on Reddit.
Despite their Simpsons-style look, several commenters have expressed doubt about the sketches' authenticity based on the number of fingers drawn on Bart.
