== History ==
When Homer sees an advertisement for Blockoland, the Simpson family goes there. When they leave, Lisa finds that a part of her Eiffel Tower is missing. Homer goes to the park and gets the piece. Afterwards, Homer plans to help people with their problems.
Homer then goes to Moe's Tavern after a hard day of work. Lenny says that since Duff Beer has owned the stadium, the Springfield Isotopes haven't won a single game and he wants a refund. Homer then goes to talk to Duff Beer's owner, Howard K. Duff VIII, and discovers that he is moving the team to Albuquerque. Homer tries to tell the news this but the room is replaced by a dancer. Homer then goes on a hunger strike to tell everyone the truth but no one believes him. When a bunch of people see Homer, Howard K. Duff uses Homer as an attraction in the field. Homer is then hungry and is offered a hot dog and all the toppings are ones from Albuquerque. Everyone then learns the truth and Homer becomes a hero.
== Behind the Laughter ==
H.K. Duff serves a similar role to an unidentified Duff CEO whose career ended during his only appearance in the season 8 episode "Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment".
The sign on H.K. Duff's door at the Duff Stadium in season 12's Hungry, Hungry Homer" and at the Isotope Stadium in season 17's "Marge and Homer Turn a Couple Play" clearly identifies him as H.K. Duff VIII. However, dialogue in season 14's "Old Yeller-Belly" and season 26's "Waiting for Duffman" identifies him as "the seventh".
His first name is also unclear. While Duffman calls him Howard in "Hungry, Hungry Homer", in season 20's "Take My Life, Please" the Springfield Wall of Fame refers to him as Henry.
