1983

"This is my 200-pound bag of Awwww Gratin potatoes! It's an '83!"

There have been times in the Homestar Runner universe that the characters referenced the year 1983.

Appearances

• Email autobiography — Strong Bad starts out by saying, "This email is brought to you by a grant from The Cheat." A logo shaped like The Cheat appears. Above it is written "The Cheat" and below it in quotes is written "since 1983".
• Email the bet — The King of Town has a 200-pound bag of Awwww Gratin potatoes dated 1983.
• Baddest of the Bands — When Bubs asks him, Strong Bad blames Coach Z for vandalizing The Stick. Bubs says that Coach Z hasn't pulled that stunt since Halloween of '83.
• Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective — Dangeresque claims that Professor Experimento got him kicked out of the Space Program back in '83.
• Disk 4 of 12 - FriendlyWare — Strong Bad and Homestar Runner point out that the game they're playing costs $49.95 in 1983 dollars. Later, when Strong Bad selects "Personal Biorhythms", he inserts 1983 as the year he wants his chart to start, and, believing it to be the objective, he found that the letters in the chart spell "PIE" on November 12 of that year.
