Quotes
Cecil "Stud" Cantrell:
When God made Man, He made him outta string. He had a little left, so He made that little thing. When God made Woman, He made her outta lace. He didn't have enough, so He left that little space. Thank you, God!
Goofs
The outfield wall inside the stadium reads "Smythe Field", named for the fictional owner of the team, J. Harrell Smythe. However, on an exterior shot showing fans arriving for a home game, the outside wall clearly reads "Henley Field".
