"It was my Lederhosen!"

Homestar Runner is in the mountains, complete with Alpine attire.

Cast (in order of appearance): Homestar Runner

Places: The Alps

Icon: Mountains

Page title: "Homestar Runner"

Toons - A bald eagle flies by.
Games - A fish jumps out of the river.
Characters - One of the trees in the background becomes a Christmas tree.
Downloads - An eagle catches the fish.
Store - It rains.
Email - A yodeler appears at the top of the mountain and shouts "Ricola!" through a large Alpenhorn.

This and Main Page 3 are the only two main pages to have just "Homestar Runner" as the page title.
The rain is always behind everything else in the shot, other than the background, with no regard for perspective.
The yodeler, like Homestar, does not seem to have visible arms to hold up the horn.

Homestar wears Strong Sad's lederhosen in the toon In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD, quite possibly the inspiration for this main page.

Ricola is a brand of cough drops from Switzerland, whose commercials actually used to feature people hollering the brand name from the top of a mountain. While the Alpenhorn held by the yodeler is also a nod to the Ricola commercials, the commercial featured one yodeler to yell the brand name and another to play the horn from atop a hill.

The alps scene is used as a backdrop in the show.
A Powered by The Cheat-style background of the alps is shown in Experimental Film.
