* CutSong: Two songs that were originally going to be in the film, but later taken out, were "Shatterproof", a rap song to be sung by Packer during the bar fight scene, and "Don't Be Stupid", a song to be sung by some of the Bingham Canyon miners after the reprise of "Shpadoinkle". An interview with Ian Keldin revealed that Trey thought "Shatterproof" made Packer seem too tough.
* LoopingLines: At the opening of the scene at the saloon near the end, the sound had been lost. When they went into ADR the scene, they didn't know what everyone had said and had to improvise. "Drink-ee-poo" came out of this improvisation.
* RealLifeRelative: Trey Parker's father Randy played the judge.

* WriteWhatYouKnow / SmallReferencePools: Trey Parker originally attended Berklee College of Music as a film scoring major before returning to Colorado to finish his education, so the song-stopping argument about music theory is a rather funny in-joke for music majors.

* ThrowItin: A couple of examples according to the commentary:
** When Trey Parker was first writing the song "Shpadoinkle", the title was was just a nonsensical bit of filler he intended to replace with a real word later. But everyone seemed to like "shpadoinkle", so it stayed in the song and became a running gag.
** When the Sheriff of Lake City gloats to Packer about his upcoming hanging at sunrise, he says "You know what they say about sunrise..." and abruptly wanders off camera without finishing his thought: This was apparently the drunken actor forgetting his lines and just walking away, but it was decided that leaving it a complete NonSequitur would be funnier than the actual punchline in the script.
