Trivia[]
- The title and plot are a reference to the 2009 R-rated comedy film, The Hangover and also its 2 sequels.
- When Blossom wakes up to see a piñata head next to her is a reference to the scene from the 1972 R-rated crime drama "The Godfather" where the character, Jack Woltz woke up to see his prized horse have been killed and its disembodied head is on his bed. Expect, unlike Woltz who screamed in horror to see his horse is now dead and been disembodied, seeing the piñata Blossom didn't even fazed her probably because she knew it was a head of a piñata from her and her sisters' slumber party and also because she have a headache and stomachache from eating so many candies at their slumber party to even care.
