-*When Homer draws a picture of himself it looks similar to his original look. Originally, Homer was going to have a G for his ear and the M on his hair and it would form [[Matt Groening]]'s initials. However, as explained in the audio commentary for "[[Lost Our Lisa]]", the design was dumped as it would be too distracting for fans.

 *When Nelson enters the Simpson house, he acts like he's never been there before, even though he was there in "[[Bart the General]]", after admitting defeat by Bart.
-*The scene with the State Capital test is very inaccurate. First, the test left out Arkansas so the Capital of California is Little Rock, which is the Capital of Arkansas. The Colorado Capital became Sacramento, California's Capital and the Colorado Capital became Denver. Then the answers merged closer making it the same as it should be. The final problem is when Homer claims the Capital of Kentucky is not Frankfort. The Capital is Frankfort. The problem with it is that Kentucky is not on the One Page quiz. This is because the quiz only goes to Iowa.
