Cripple Fight/Trivia

Trivia

 * First appearance and introduction of Jimmy.
 * Kyle is not in this episode.
 * The Mountain Scouts’ branding as a hate group is a reference to the controversy of the BSA banning homosexual members, particularly the Boy Scouts of America v. Dale case in 2000.
 * In the recent UK poll Paramount Comedy's Top 10 Episodes, this episode was ranked number 8. "Park Life", the documentary accompanying the countdown, showcased how the positive characterization of Big Gay Al in this episode is what earned it so much respect.
 * In this episode, Timmy first begins to show advanced cognitive ability, as he successfully doctors an image. In previous episodes, he is shown to have a mental retardation.
 * It is revealed that the first name of Mrs. McCormick is Carol.
 * Mr. Grazier was in Jimbo and Ned's platoon in Vietnam, as seen in the episode "The Mexican Staring Frog Of Southern Sri Lanka".

Goofs

 * Kyle's parents can be seen in the Catholic Church, when Cartman enters, announcing the Cripple Fight. Since they are Jewish, they shouldn't be there (though they could have been there for a funeral/event).
 * Tweek can be seen in several scenes, but his hair is black instead of blonde.
 * During the fight, Timmy's uniform has the number "0" on its side. However, the number of the troop is supposed to be "69". (This could be because Jimmy said at the start of the episode that he traveled around states, so he wasn't in the south park troop at the time.)
