:: :
When the boys are invited to make out with the trailer park girls (before they die), the boys become excited and play the instrumental "Frankenstein" by The Edgar Winters Group on air guitar. After the girls are blown by the tornado into Oz (also a Wizard of Oz reference) they run into some munchkins who also become excited and play the same song on their own air guitars. (edit)
Audience Member: "Well why did you enlist if you didn't want your breasts fondled?"
When the audience member of the talk show the boys are watching asks this question, she is referring to the Naval Aviator's 1991 Tailhook Convention scandal in which several women were sexually harassed or assaulted. (edit)
