On the back of the carriage just before the sign reading, "Welcome.These are both parodies of Coolio's trademark hairstyle. When Yankovic states he's "scoring points for the afterlife," he takes off his hat to reveal a hairstyle very similar to that seen on the cover of his album Bad Hair Day.
Al's face is seen, with him sweating more every time a close up is.When the young Amish children are on Yankovic's knee, they each have a beard, even though they appear to be about 6 years old.In one part, two boys are looking at a supposed "Amish Babes" porn magazine (the cover slogan says "Plow My Field!"), but in the centerfold all the woman is showing is her leg up to her knee, insinuating that this is considered to be scandalous among the Amish.This is a homage to the film Witness, which takes place in Lancaster County, home to perhaps the most well-known Amish communities. At one point Al is seen reading a fake Lancaster, Pennsylvania, newspaper, with the headline "Much Butter Was Churned".When Al says "We sell quilts at discount price," a wooden booth is shown selling quilts, with a sign that says 'OUR PRICES ART INSANE!!!' in a parody of ' Crazy Eddie' advertisements.When the man is sawing and checking his sundial watch (on a cloudy day), the man behind him is playing golf (the follow-through of which resembles the use of a scythe).When Al is churning butter, a woman walks by, and he is seen churning faster in an arguably suggestive manner.Prince is one of the very few artists in the music industry who hasĬonsistently refused to let Weird Al record parodies of his songs. The line "Tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699," is a not-so subtle jab at Prince and his song " 1999".In the next scene, when Jebediah is "feeding the chickens" he is giving them pizza.A box of corn flakes can be seen next to him. When Yankovic says he is up at 4:30 in the morning milking cows, he is shown milking a cow directly into a bowl of cereal instead of a milk pail.When Yankovic states that Amish shun electricity, several Amish stomp on electronic devices, such as CDs, floppy disks, laptops and a Slim Whitman LP album.
