1!!The comic strip
2* BrokenBase: The Poohawk tribe was this, both today and during the strip's run. [[WordOfSaintPaul Jim Davis, Ryan's assistant, confirmed]] that a lot of fan mail came from Native Americans, who openly admitted that the Poohawks were [[MexicansLoveSpeedyGonzales pretty funny]]. Most of the angry letters over the Poohawks came from [[OpinionOverride white liberals]].
3* CultClassic: ''Tumbleweeds'' never had the mass following of ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' or ''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'' or the mass merchandising of ''ComicStrip/{{Garfield}}'' but it still has its fans.
4* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff:
5** ''Tumbleweeds'' had a small following in Australia. Some of the strips were reprinted in magazine sized collections from Beaumont Books.
6** It also had a following in Italy. Six books of strip collections were released there and Tumbleweeds was renamed Colt for the Italian market.
7* RetroactiveRecognition: T.K. Ryan employed an assistant from 1969 to 1978 to help out on ''Tumbleweeds''. That assistant's name was Creator/JimDavis.
