What color tie will Homer wear, meeting The Simpsons, user generated, "Best. Character. Ever."?

Settled as Other

Background: The Simpsons" continues to celebrate their 20th year on TV with a "Best. Character. Ever." contest. The Fox animated show wants fans to draw their own character for the show.

Fans aged 18 years or older can try his/her luck in creating a "Simpsons" character. The characters must include name, aliases, age, distinguishing features, and known catchphrases.

Deadline for submission is on October 24. Episode is planned to air on January 31, 2010.

The episode in which the new character will appear will see Homer disappoint Marge by arriving late at a wedding ceremony after stopping to buy a lottery ticket. He encounters the new resident while rushing to the wedding.

Since Homer is attending a wedding ceremony, he is likely to wear a tie - I've seen Homer wearing one before, swear!
