Smokey (or Bernie in the UK dubs) is the Cartown Fire Chief. He can usually be found at the Cartown Fire Station.
History[]
In Putt-Putt Joins the Parade, Smokey is the organizer of the Cartown Pet Parade. He tells Putt-Putt what he needs to do to be able to participate in the parade. Since Putt-Putt needs to earn money to get a carwash and he doesn't have a lawnmower, Smokey lends Putt-Putt his lawnmower so he can mow lawns for money and also tells him which street he can go to mow lawns (which will vary in the game). After Putt-Putt gets all the necessaries for the parade, he will return to Smokey, who will tell him he is ready to join the parade and lets him have the honor of leading it.
In Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo, Smokey makes a brief cameo in a photo in the album during the end credits.
In Putt-Putt Travels Through Time, Smokey/Bernie appears in Putt-Putt's red lunchbox with a green handle containing his picture.
In Putt-Putt Enters the Race, Putt-Putt calls 911/999 or 0 when he sees a shed on fire on Valley Road. Smokey/Bernie arrives quickly and puts the fire out. Then he gives Putt-Putt a Jr. Fire Marshal Badge, as a reward for alerting him to an emergency. After Putt-Putt has earned his badge, Smokey/Bernie allows him to borrow a ladder from the fire station, and Putt-Putt uses the ladder to rescue Mr. Fenderbender's/Bumperthumper's cat, Bonzo.
In Putt-Putt Joins the Circus, Smokey/Bernie makes a cameo appearance in the crowd.
In Putt-Putt: Pep's Birthday Surprise, Smokey has a Dalmatian that Pep goes to play with while Putt-Putt talks to Smokey or Ms. Widget. Sometimes Marvin's hat is at the fire station, and Pep has to herd all the bunnies that are running around at the fire station back into the hat. At the end of the game, Smokey supervises the lighting of the birthday candle.
In popular culture[]
In PeanutButterGamer's Putt-Putt videos, he constantly mentions that he thinks Smokey/Bernie is creepy (likely because of the facial expressions). He goes into detail in one of his appearances in the second video, with him even getting to be the picture on the icon for the video. He then jokes after calling 911/999 or 0 in the game about how he needs to call 911/999 or 0 again, with a picture edited with Putt-Putt on the phone, and saying he believes he will be assaulted.
Trivia[]
- In Smokey's first two appearances (Putt-Putt Joins the Parade and Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo), he has gray tires and a gray nose. Beginning with Putt-Putt Enters the Race, Smokey/Bernie has white tires and a yellow nose.
