Cultural references
- When Homer opens his own bar in his garage and has R.E.M. in to play, they perform "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)".
- As Homer sings his own version of the song, he mentions Herman Munster and Cheetos. He also mentions "Leonid What's-his-name," referring to Leonid Brezhnev who himself is mentioned in R.E.M.'s song.
- Homer, Lenny, Carl, and Barney sing a short song to the tune of Joan Jett's "I Love Rock 'n' Roll".
- Swigmore University, which Moe attends in the episode, is a parody of Skidmore College
- The professor working at Swigmore University is based on Professor Charles W. Kingsfield, Jr. from the television series The Paper Chase.
- The monitors showing eyeballs are based on similar decorations found in the elevators in the St Martin’s Lane hotel, where the Simpsons' staff hosted a Simpsons festival.
- The doorman in front of M was modeled after special effects creator and actor Greg Nicotero.
- The dance that Homer, Carl and Lenny perform in Moe's bar is a takeoff on the dancing in the comedy/drama film Coyote Ugly, in which the dancers performed on the bar counter.
- As Moe crosses the campus, he passes a student with a six-pack of Duff Beer under his arm, a student with a backpack full of bottles and a student juggling bottles, a reference to Cocktail.
