Trivia[]
- In The Simpsons episode, Helter Shelter, the song and the intro of the show is parodied. The scene in which the Simpsons wait outside their house waiting for time to "fly by" is a parody of the opening sequence of King of the Hill.
- The theme is used by King of the Hill in two versions, one with a cowbell and a Christmas version.
- An alternative version of the theme was featured as the final song on the show's Soundtrack, featuring someone shouting "Yahoo!" and a short guitar solo during the bell section.
