The Larry Davis Experience (from 7G01) play at the prom
Mr. Seckofsky (the shop teacher) is missing a finger.
Homer has posters of Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin.
Marge says they were seniors in high school together, so that would mean that they are the same age. However, it has been established that Homer is 39, and Marge is 34. Is it possible that Homer got held back in school five times? He sure didnt look 23 when he was a senior. This is just one of the many weird things in the show about Homer aging, but nobody else.

The song that plays when Homer first meets Marge and in other various points in the episode is "Close to You" by The Carpenters.
