Trivia
The dog that took the burrito out of Anthony Stoner's (Tommy Chong) hand was not a trained dog, but a local stray. He simply walked into frame, took the burrito, and walked away. Cheech Marin and Tommy Chong ad-libbed around this, and it was left in the movie.

Goofs
When Cheech and Chong are crossing the street in Mexico, someone in a passing bus flashes a peace sign at the camera.

Quotes
Border Guard: So, how long you've been in Mexico?
Pedro de Pacas: A week. I mean a day.
Border Guard: Well, which is it? A week or a day?
Pedro de Pacas: A weekday.

Crazy credits
The opening credits are in the style of spray-painted graffiti, super-imposed over Pedro's low-rider.

THE definitive stoner flick

First of the Cheech and Chong movies is probably the best overall, with the duo involved in a plot to drive a van constructed entirely of pot across the Mexican border into the US and featuring Cheech singing "Earache my Eye". Lots of laughs (especially for the "inspired" viewers), but definitely not for everyone. The whole movie revolves around drug use, so not a movie for young children, obviously. However, if you don't mind this, you'll probably laugh your you-know-what off.
