H*R in Flash Player 8

As part of the first showing of the as yet unreleased Macromedia Flash Player 8, a graphical demo was shown with various effects that will be available in the new player being applied to both graphics, text, animations and movies on the fly. Of all the animations on the web, the Macromedia developers decided to feature both Homestar Runner and an animated The Homestar Runner, showing the new effects being applied to their forms.

This was the first use of Homestar Runner by Macromedia, the later being the short, Where the Crap Are We?, which appeared as an easter egg in the about dialog of Macromedia Central.

Before Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, the official fan club held a convention in the Indiana Convention Center, where they showed cars modeled after several ships from the Star Wars universe. One of the X-Wing cars had a Homestar Runner cling sticker on it.

Pumpkin!

Around Halloween 2004, at "The Old Spaghetti Factory" restaurant in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, they had a large collection of carved pumpkins all over the place, and one prominently placed pumpkin near the entrance had a (excellently carved) likeness of Homestar in it. To show how big this is, one must know that "The Old Spaghetti Factory" is a fairly famous resturant, and is a higher class restaurant.

BigStuf Camp

The youth camp program "BigStuf" held in Panama City, FL every year is home to several Homestar Runner sightings: The violin player in the camp's band consistently wears various Homestar Runner shirts, and a Homestar Runner character is always thanked on the last day of camp every year. In 2004, it was Homestar Runner; In 2005, it was Coach Z.
