| 1 | * BrokenAesop: Ms. Harshwhinny eventually decides to host the games in the Crystal Empire, saying that every other place she visited tried to put on airs, while she got the story of how great the empire was from a normal pony. The problem is the only reason the tourist has such a glowing opinion of the empire is because she experienced all of the things that they were doing to specifically impress Ms. Harshwhinny, while Harshwhinny herself only got grief and frustration from the Crystal Empire citizens. So if the moral was meant to be "People will be more impressed by sincerity than by fake attempts to seem great", or "Sometimes it takes an honest opinion from a fellow tourist to make up for what you've missed, whether or not you'd want to see it for yourself", then it undermined its own message. |
| 2 | * AccidentalInnuendo: "Well tie me up and throw me down!" |
| 3 | * FanNickname: |
| 4 | ** Some fans have taken to naming the tourist "Ms. Peachbottom" after [[WorkingTitle the original name of the Equestria Games inspector]], while the Derpibooru Community has given her the name "Chickadee" based on her chicken cutie mark. |
| 5 | ** For Rainbow Dash's father, popular fan nicknames are "[[GeniusBonus Roy G. Biv]]" and "Spectrum", and occasionally [[FanFic/OnACrossAndArrow Rainbow Blitz]]. [[UnnamedParent "Rainbow Dad"]] is also acceptable. [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/97830/dashs-new-mom This fanfic]] uses Blue Streak. |
| 6 | ** The fans referred to the Crystal Mud Bath as the "Gak Bath", due to it behaving very much like the product in question, the commercials for which appeared incredibly often during the season premiere. |
| 7 | * ItWasHisSled: To have the episode end with Spike, the Crusaders and the pets hiding from the Mane Six doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Their featured episode where it's revealed they avoided detection had already aired. |
| 8 | * OneSceneWonder: Rainbow Blaze. He only appears for less than 15 seconds in her flashback, but as his appearance marks the first ever canon family member for one of the main pegasus ponies in the series, fans got pretty excited over him. |
