1. Corona Virus And Murder Hornets

3. Video Calling
In 1995, an episode showed a fortune teller transported Lisa to 2010 . She talks to Marge via “video chat” called a “Picture Phone”. Hollywood movies too have predicted this over years; but what happened in 2010? Apple co founder Steve Jobs announced FaceTime.

8. Olympic Gold Medal
In a 2010 episode, Homer and Marge beat Sweden and took Olympic gold medal for USA in a Mixed Match Curling. In 2018 Winter Olympics, USA men team beat Sweden to win the Gold Medal. Shocking considering both beat Sweden.
