Smokey and the Bandit/Trivia
- Playing Against Type: Jackie Gleason was a New York Jew. He plays an East Texas redneck in all three movies.
- The Red Stapler: After this movie came out, there was a six-month waiting list to purchase black Trans Ams.
- Throw It In: Jackie Gleason was given a lot of lee-way to ad lib. The scene where he meets Bandit at the choke'n'puke without knowing it was his idea.
