The marquee of the drive-in movie theatre that Briggs drives under in the opening shot says: Geller and Solow "Spend the Money". A reference to the executive producers of the show.
Although highly improbable, it's possible for the dealer to legitimately win a game of showdown with the deck with the strippers. Example: The 9 strippers were 10,10,10,J,J,J,A,A,A (suits don't matter in this case, a flush is impossible). If out of the stripped cards, Rollin ended up with (10,10,J,J,A), Lowell would have ended up with (10,J,A,A,?). If the 10th card (Lowell's last) had been the 4th ace, 4th jack or 4th 10 in the deck, Lowell would have won with either three of a kind (10,J,A,A,A) or one of two higher two pairs (10,10,J,A,A) (10,J,J,A,A).
