At the beginning of the season premiere (22nd season) episode of 'The Simpsons' (one of America's greatest contributions to the world), the winner of Nobel Prize in Economics is announced ... Lisa Simpson and her nerdy friends are staying up into the wee hours of the morning to catch the live announcement of the Nobel Prizes. It is a great choice.

For the real world Nobel Prize in Economics, we have to wait until Oct 11th.
