Question
During a concert in this city, the band Milli Vanilli were abducted and brought back to Dark Land by Kootie Pie, where they were transformed into accountants. This city is home to the Scapelli Construction company, whose leader was shot by a Devo Gun and turned into a chimpanzee. A family business in this city spent their life savings on a poorly-produced TV commercial that included the awkwardly-delivered testimonial “it seems like the only thing you haven’t drained, is my bank account.” During a military conflict, a (*) Bomber Bill detonated in the Warp Zone, producing a rift between the Mushroom Kingdom and the sewer system of this city. For 10 points, name this home of the plumbing business Super Mario Bros. Plumbing, which is located in the borough of Brooklyn. ■END■
ANSWER: New York City [accept Brooklyn before mention; reject “New Donk City” or “New Pork City”] (The first two clues are from the Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 TV show and the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie, and the rest is from the 2023 Super Mario Bros. Movie. Who says that all of these can’t exist in the same canon?)
