THE KWIK-E-MART

In the Simpsons TV serie, there's a supermarket, and its owner is an Indian man, his name is Apu. I discovered that several shopping centers in the United States have used this publicity to turn the supermarkets like in the series.
It's very funny 'cause there are many things equal: There's the same building with the same placard. Even the shopman looks like Apu. There's also the machine of the famous Squishees, which are called in Spanish "fresisuís". You can also buy the famous donuts from The Simpsons, with pink icing and colorful shavings. There's also the famous Krusty cereal, the KrustyO's. There are also figures of characters from the series, for example Homer, or the old man who was frozen in the refrigerator. In the walls are painted graffitis of "El Barto" (the Bart Simpson's signature) and caricatures of Skinner, the director of the school.
It's a very curious thing, I'd like to go there and be able to see it, I think it would be so funny.

Here you can see some photos:
