Flaming Moe's/References

Trivia

 * The gang at Flaming Moe's include: Lenny, Carl, Barney, Krusty, Dr. Nick, Princess Kashimr, Ned and Maude Flanders, Jasper, Otto, Ms. Krabappel, Kent Brockman and Barney again.
 * A sign behind the bar reads, "Bartenders do it 'till ya barf".
 * Maggie says Moe in this episode - in Homer's hallucination. Whether or not it counts as her first word is up to you. Note that she also said It's your fault I can't talk! in Bart Vs. Thanksgiving (in Bart's nightmare).
 * A bowie knife, a glass eye, a troll doll and the cough syrup are in the Lost and Found box.
 * Underneath the floorboards at Lisa's slumber party is a pipe labeled lead and insulation labeled Asbestos.

 * Both names ascribed to the drink (Flaming Homer and Flaming Moe) are similar to terms for a stereotypical homosexual (flaming homo and flaming 'mo, respectively).
 * This is the only episode to make mention of a junior high (or middle) school in Springfield, as Moe complains that it being across the street is negatively affecting his business, although future episodes indicate that it was merely a reference since the opposite side of the street has had a gay bar, a club for Springfield's elite and socialites, and even a motel.
