Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Get your motor runnin’
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
In whatever comes our way
Time for biker bars, biker brawls, and biker…shorts?! 🤔
The latest mini-event in our pocket-sized towns, Springfield Choppers, is now live! Make sure you’ve downloaded the latest update from the app store to see it. This update will turn the splash screen back to normal Homer running…so if you still see the Love and War splash screen, you haven’t updated.
You’ll need Bart free to kick things off (as well as Meathook and Ramrod, if you have them) for the traditional series of 6s tasks. This is followed by 4hr task for Bart, Nelson, Dolph, Jimbo, and Kearney and currency earning tasks for Homer, Marge, Lisa, Wiggum, Grampa, Meathook, Ramrod, and the new premium character. Also, Bart and Nelson will have a currency earning tasks…
Details below the fold…
Here’s the quick rundown of Springfield Chopper details:
First thing first…this event, and everything with it leaves games in two weeks…March 31st. It’s your standard mini-event, leaving just in time for April…
So you’ll have to finish the prize track questline and purchase any premium items BEFORE March 31st. Don’t let the timer run out on you!
Onto the mini-event itself…
So the same basic concept for mini-events, in general, applies to this one. Follow a questline, do the tasks, and unlock the prizes associated with it.
The premise of the event starts when you log into Springfield, with There Goes My Hereos…
Bart: The bucket is in position. When Skinner opens that door, he’ll be covered in shrimp.
Milhouse: Abort! Abort! The bullies are in his office and they’re walking out first!
Jimbo: *bucket drops* What the SHRIMPPP?!
Kearney: I’m allergic!
Nelson: Craw-Craw! Your bald head is swelling up!
Skinner: Crevette in a net…this prank has Bart Simpson’s name all over it.
Jimbo: There he is on his skateboard!
Dolph: Quick! Steal those nerds’ bikes!
Database: Our bicycles!
Bart: Oh man, I can’t out-skate bullies on bikes!
Kearney: You’re going to pay for this, Simpson!
Bart: I’ll just duck into this sketchy dive bar and hide. *enters* AHHH! REAL BIKERS!
Meathook: Well, lookie here. Seems like we got some fresh meat, fellas.
Ramrod: What do you think, Meathook? Should we show this kid our idea of “hospitality”?
Bart: Why did you air-quote hospitality? Are you gonna kill me and send my body to the hospital?!
Spiro: Kill you? No, no! We don’t kill people anymore. We’re the Spiro’s Heroes. I’m Spiro. This here is Meathook, that’s Ramrod, and back at the pool table there is Porkchop.
Homer: Mmmmm…porkchops…
Bart: Homer? What are you doing here?
Homer: Moe’s got shut down again. Something to do with not having a liquor license for thirty years. Anyway, don’t mind me — carry on.
Spiro: Look kid, we need young recruits like you, so do you want to join our gang or what?
Bart: *gasp* You’d let me join your badass biker gang?
Ramrod: You still gotta go through the initiation, but we’ll let you skip the written test.
Homer: Unfair! You made me take the written test!
Meathook: And you got a 0 out of 100…and it was multiple choice…
Homer: *annoyed grunt*
This dialogue is followed by a 6s task for Bart, Meathook, and Ramrod (assuming you have Meathook and Ramrod…they’re from a 2018 mini-event) and after that you’ll roll right into the main questline….
The questline to follow for the free prizes is…Springfield Turf Wars.
Prizes are as follows…
Always nice to see a prize track full of new prizes (and a new character!)…and not returning items.
Characters who earn currency…
Bart
Lisa
Homer
Marge
Grampa
Wiggum
Nelson
Meathook
Ramrod
Wolfguy Jack (New Premium)
Wilbur Nurple (Cash/Donut Character)
The turbo tappin’ post, which I’ll have up later, will show how you unlock each of these prizes. But the basic gist is…follow the questline, unlock the prizes. You guys should be pros at it by now! 🙂
The store is then full of new/returning items specifically for this event.

Returning Stuff
I’m not going to do a new SIB post for returning content. As I’ve been doing lately, I’ve linked their previous posts here either under Details (if it was a free prize originally) or Should I Buy (if it was premium originally). I’ve also marked which items are available in the Yearbook Mystery Box, as always, with a *.
Loads of returning content with this one. Lots of stuff back from Bart Royale (blah) and Homer vs. the 18th Amendment, and some other events…
Junk Lookout [x2], Ruffian Tower [x2], End Trench [x2] and Corner Trench [x2])

There’s also a cash character available in the store as well (similar to what they did during New Year, New You with Muscular Milhouse)…
And that’s it my friends, the details on the second mini-event of 2021…Springfield Choppers!
