The stunt was part of an art project by Elissa Patel, titled "#BartOnBart," in which the group of Bart Simpsons rode the BART from 24th street to the embarcadero. Advertisement Patel shared video of the stunt to Twitter, as more than a dozen people in Bart masks joined public transit passengers while The Simpsons theme song played in the background. According to Patel, the goal of the project was to bring art to the overwhelming number of people who make use of public transit in San Francisco. "Bart carries more than 420,000 people a day, and has historically had little art. In comparison, the SF MOMA recently raised 245 Million, and in the year of 2012, it had 632,000 visitors total," Patel wrote on Instagram. "That's about 1,700 visitors a day, not even 1% of Barts daily traffic. Seems like an opportunity."May we call this a Homer Run? #bartonbart the art project @sfmta_muni @sfchronicle @TheSimpsons pic.twitter.com/SqUxQC6E38 Advertisement— elissa patel (@elissapatel) August 10, 2016 Read More Irish police pull over 'flying saucer' in stunt gone viral Mysterious 'Pokemon Go' Pikachu statue installed in New Orleans park German woman fills in crossword puzzle art at museum
