== Cultural References ==
*The sniper on the roof of the building across from the plaza does take the shot at [[Lisa]], but misses when she moves her head and the shot lands in the floor behind her, just like the sniper shot aimed at Charles de Gaulle at the end of ''{{w|The Day of the Jackal}}.''
*When [[Hollis Hurlbut]] brings Lisa the plate of cornbread, he says "Heeeere's {{w|jonnycakes}}!" in the style of Ed McMahon announcing [[Johnny Carson]] ("Heeeere's Johnny!") on ''The Tonight Show''.
*The man painting the iconic portrait of [[George Washington]] is recognizable as {{w|Gilbert Stuart}}.
*When {{w|Betsy Ross}} shows Washington the flag and says she couldn't get the "red hearts, yellow moons and green clovers" he wanted, it is a reference to {{w|Lucky Charms}} cereal, formerly advertised as having marshmallow pink hearts, yellow moons, and green clovers. Lucky Charms however had orange stars instead of the white ones in the flag.
*"Hollis" and "Hurlbut" are freshman dormitories at Harvard.

== Trivia ==
*The flag in Miss Hoover's classroom has 25 stars and 15 stripes.
*In his fight with [[Jebediah Springfield]], you see [[George Washington]] grab his false teeth off a table and take them past Jebediah's arm. What is not seen is that he then uses them to bite Jebediah in the crotch. One knows this by the look on Jebediah's face, the way he is doubled over on the floor, and later hobbles out of the building.
*Ironically, [[Donald Sutherland]] played the character "Homer Simpson" in the 1975 film "[[wikipedia:The Day of the Locust (film)|The Day of the Locust]]".

== Notes ==
*The words "cromulent" and "embiggen" were both coined by the writers of this episode. Although completely made up, these words have since taken on a life of their own via the Internet and other media. "Cromulent" has also appeared in the Webster's New Millennium Dictionary of English.
