In 1999, The Simpsons predicted the Stanley Cup would be in Las Vegas

When it comes to making predictions, no show has done it better than 'The Simpsons.'

Over the years, sports fans have learned that the writers for the legendary show have been incredible at predicting future events and the latest involves the Vegas Golden Knights.

In 1999, before “The Hangover” and the Golden Knights, Homer Simpson and Ned Flanders had the Stanley Cup in Vegas. pic.twitter.com/dnm1ucNtCt — Nick Cotsonika (@cotsonika) May 26, 2018 It’s true! From the episode “Viva Ned Flanders”!!! Any @TheSimpsons animators or writers care to comment? pic.twitter.com/LWKwuAHqqc — 之铁台风球迷 (@IronCaniac) May 26, 2018

Nobody could have predicted the Stanley Cup would end up in Las Vegas other than The Simpsons. At this point, we shouldn't even be surprised.

The episode the Stanley Cup appeared in was 'Viva Ned Flanders' which aired in 1999. In an attempt to get Ned to loosen up, Homer takes him to Vegas and the rest is history.

Vegas hasn't won the Cup just yet, but if The Simpsons predicted the Cup would be in Vegas, then it's basically a lock to happen.
