Trivia

add »
How can Beavis go airborne with the amount of balloons he had? It's would be a high amount to lift even a small child let alone a teenager. However, even then, it would going be a few feet, and Beavis' arm would've have been in pain before being lifted. (edit)
When it shows Beavis urinating, it shows his hands gently tapping the water. In the next scene, his arms are flying in the air. (edit)

Allusions

add »
During the Faith No More video, Butthead says fish baseball, which is an obvious spoof from the pilot.
