*''[[The Shawshank Redemption]]'': After the failed bus jump escape from the police, [[Grampa]] and the [[Springfield Mafia]] are caught and put in jail. Grampa, telling the story, says, "I stayed there for many years until a poster of [[Rita Hayworth]] helped me to escape", a reference to Andy Dufresne using pin-up posters (beginning with Rita Hayworth) to conceal his escape tunnel in the movie.
*''[[Star Wars]]'': Grampa finds a locked treasure chest but has no lock picking tools, so he uses a raygun to shoot the lock open. He then says, "Lock picks and tools are no match for a good blaster at your side!" This echoes [[Han Solo]]'s derisive line about the Force and lightsabers in ''Star Wars: A New Hope'', "Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side."

 *The story is done in a style strongly reminiscent of the ''{{W|Choose Your Own Adventure}}'' book series, which was very popular during the 1980s and 1990s. In the books, readers would read a portion of the text, have a choice to make at the end, and then be directed to a different page depending on what their choice was. Readers would move forward or backward through the pages and end up at a good or bad ending, very similar to how ''Grampa Simpson's Great Sandwich Caper!'' is laid out.
