Three o' dems

Gold seems to frequently entice the greed of the people of Free Country, USA, especially Strong Bad, who seems to have an obsession with gold and the wealth it brings. It has become a running gag and a common theme in the Homestar Runner body of work, although it is usually only mentioned, wished for, or illustrated. Only occasionally is real gold actually seen in Free Country, USA.
