*Due to the closure of his bar, Moe tells his patrons to get their beer from a gay bar across the street, "[[The League of Extra-Horny Gentlemen]]" (a play on The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) from which "Can't Get You out of My Head" by Kylie Minogue is playing.

== Awards ==
 
*This episode would win writer Michael Price the 2006 WGA Award for writing in animation. It marked the third year in a row a Simpsons episode won the award.
