Otto Mann

Otto Mann. Schoolbus driver/Springfield Elementary. Drives the bus while listening to heavy metal on a Walkman. Comforts Bart with immortal line: "You're getting held back in the fourth grade? Cool it dude, I got held back twice. Best thing that ever happened to me. Now Idrive the school bus!" Also says: "Party hearty!" and to Bart, "Yo, little dude!"

As a kid, you probably never realised that Otto Man was actually a massive stoner. Sure, you came to that realisation later in life once you became savvy to the fairly obvious weed and drugs jokes, but we have no doubt you’ve missed some of the incredibly obvious stoner references throughout The Simpsons long and illustrious history.

A scene in the Simpsons with Otto the Bus Driver.

Otto Mann, known as Otto the School Bus Driver prior to Season 8 (and so stylized after Bart calling him "the Otto man" on several occasions), is a former school underachiever who now works as the bus driver for Springfield Elementary. Otto was initially conceived by Shearer himself as a caricature of heavy metal music aficionados who mostly play guitar and do drugs while occupying a low-level labor job. He then became a character well known for his party tendencies and calling others slang such as "dude", "lady", or "pops". He is friends with Bart on some occasions, despite their age difference, and dreams of starting his own rock band to become a celebrity, all while getting the school bus into trouble one time after another.

Otto Mann is a fictional character on the animated TV series The Simpsons, voiced by Harry Shearer.[1] He is the school bus driver for Springfield Elementary School.
