Bobo is the long-lost teddy bear of Charles Montgomery Burns of The Simpsons, featured in the episode Rosebud.
Burns left his bear behind when, as a little child, he was sent to live with a billionaire, ala Citizen Kane. Bobo would go through several owners including aviator Charles Lindbergh and dictator Adolf Hitler before being taken to the Arctic onboard the Nautilus submarine, and being encased in a block of ice. The ice with him in it was sent to Apu's Kwik-E-Mart in Springfield. Bart Simpson bought the block of ice and let his baby sister Maggie have the bear.
Burns discovered Maggie had the bear and went through incredible feats to get it back, including interrupting all TV shows, and cutting off the beer supply to Springfield, in order to get Homer Simpson to give it up. Finally, Maggie, in an act of pity, let the desperate Burns have the bear.
