62 What's this I hear about a real life version of the Simpson house? (Simpsons)

Kaufman and Broad has designed a 2,200 square ft., 4-bedroom house in
Henderson, NV just outside of Las Vegas which looks exactly like the
Simpsons' house. Pepsi-Cola Company set up a contest to give this very
house away to someone. With certain beverage products came a game piece
with a number, which, if matched with the number flashed during the ninth
season premiere of The Simpsons, would be the winning number. The winning
number was 9786065.

The winner, 63-year-old great grandmother Barbara Howard from Richmond,
Kentucky, was given the keys to the $120,000 house December 10th, 1997.
