Trivia

• After Cartman goes to Kenny for help, Kenny says a curse word so clearly that it is bleeped. In previous instances when Kenny cursed he wasn't bleeped due to his dialog being indicipherable.
• It is revealed that Clyde Donovan is the second fattest kid in South Park, even though he looks the same weight as the other boys. This was only Butters' assessment, though, and Clyde was shocked by it.
• Kyle's pig Latin rant is translated in to, "They don't? Why the hell not? It took us four hours to bake this goddamn cake, and now we're totally screwed!"
• This is the first major appearance of Token Black.
• When Stan and Kyle keep on calling Clyde fat, he starts to sound like Cartman.
• This was the second of the four South Park episodes to have "2000" at the end of the title, spoofing the fact that, in early 2000, seemingly every piece of media had the year 2000 behind it.
• Instead of the traditional "Oh my god, they killed Kenny!" phrase, when Kenny is crushed by the bricks, Stan and Kyle say nonchalantly "Oh my god, we killed Kenny." "We killed Kenny?" "We killed Kenny, we're bastards".
• The game that Cartman smuggles into prison, Tic Tac Throw, is a real game.

• This episode is a spoof of the HBO series Oz. The theme is used when Cartman is being sent to prison.
• Cartman's original prison number, 24601, is Jean Valjean's prison number in Victor Hugo's book Les Misérables. The number that's actually on his uniform is 26354, which is Rick Deckard's police ID in Blade Runner.

Kenny's Death

• When Kyle and Stan experiment with bricks to replace Cartman's weight on the sleigh, they lose control and Kenny flies into a tree, and is subsequently crushed into the trunk by the bricks. Kyle and Stan then nonchalantly claim responsibility to each other.

Goofs

• In Mr. Mackey's office, when the FBI agents are taking Cartman out of the office, their voices, done by Trey Parker and Matt Stone, accidentally switch. ("We're sorry, Ms. Cartman, but we must follow protocol. Your son will be taken into custody, and then tried in the federal court of law.") This is noted in the commentary mini.
• The sled race is supposed to be on Saturday, but it is said to be on Thursday instead later on in the show.
• Cartman is referred to as a Hate Crime Suspect by a news anchor during the 'high speed chase', but he has already been sentenced which makes him a Hate Crime Culprit.

• In the scene when Cartman is crying for his mother, Romper Stomper's tattoo disappears and then reappears.
• Cartman's crime was a federal offense, meaning the Governor would not have the power to release him.
• Stan mistakenly calls the Governor the Mayor.

• When Clyde hugs Cartman, he is also in the crowd watching himself hug Cartman.

• In the "Hate Crime Laws" Presentation that Stan, Kyle, and Token do for the Governor, at the end, they show Kenny in the sled for the race, but Kenny had already died.
• Although Lizzy was taken offscreen by a bear after the girl's sled crash, she can be seen in later episodes. Considering the events of an earlier episode, it is possible that the bear did not harm her.
