Latigo's line, "Patience, there are some things a man just can't ride around . . . but then again, maybe he can," is a parody of the line from this film, "There are some things a man can't ride around".
The stagecoach sequences and the concept of trouble at a stop on the stage line are both inspired by this movie based on a short story by Quentin Tarantino's idol Elmore Leonard
