He also said it was worn away from repeatedly brushing the dust from his suit. One of his stand-up jokes was that, when he was a boy, he and his friends would go see a cowboy movie at the local cinema, then come out all ready to play Cowboys and Indians.

They made their first live appearance playing in front of a gas station, an event which, according to popular legend, prompted drummer Atwater to coin the phrase "What a gas!" In performance each member of the band would wear one purple glove, an idea which guitarist Landon subsequently brought along when he left the Purple gang and joined the Music Machine, led by Sean Bonniwell, who scored a huge hit in 1966 with "Talk Talk, and whose members would each wear one black glove.

I got the idea from an old cowboy movie that had an outlaw in it named "Three Finger Jack.

In 2011, Dorkly included Nightwolf among their selections of the seven most stereotypical Native American fighting-game characters. "Instead of carrying around actual axes, Nightwolf is so in touch with spirits and elders and, you know, energy, that he can form tomahawks out of green ectoplasm." Complex, in 2012, deemed Nightwolf the top stereotypical character in all video games, describing him as "the epitome of every red-skinned, feather- wearing sports mascot and old cowboy movie serial ... [he] has warpaint on his face, a feather in his hair and the sleeveless vest as if Geronimo himself just gave it up." David Wong of Cracked included Nightwolf as an example of an ethnically-stereotypical game character in a 2012 feature about racial prejudices in video game design.

Bonney, a gunman in the New Mexico territory Lincoln County War (1878), and later an outlaw in the U.S. Western frontier; and the Roman Empire movie Caligula (1979), from which Vidal had his screenwriter credit removed, because the producer, Bob Guccione, the director, Tinto Brass and the leading actor, Malcolm McDowell, rewrote the script and added extra sex and violence to increase the commercial success of a movie based upon the life of the Roman Emperor Caligula (AD 12–41)."Show Business: Will the Real Caligula Stand Up?", Time January 3, 1977.

The album consists of Bingo's reading his poems to an improvised musical accompaniment by WFMU DJs R. Stevie Moore, Bob Brainen, Dennis Diken, Dave Amels, Chris Bolger and Chris Butler, and engineered by Amels. Often, while performing live, the background music to his frantic, poetic incantations is nothing more than a cassette tape inserted into a cheap cigar-box tape recorder and miked. Bingo's poetry often contains hilarious rhyme schemes, extended stream-of- consciousness rambling, and crude language, with titles like "Up Your Jurassic Park" and "I Love You So Fucking Much I Can't Shit". He penned hyper- caffeinated odes to Madonna, Tupac Shakur, and Beavis and Butthead, and had his "Everything's O.K. at the O.K. Corral" (a dreamy reminiscence of the cowboy movie serials by an old nurse-attended man) featured on a 1996 CD produced by the famed Greenwich Village coffeehouse Fast Folk Cafe.

Because what Lucky McDaniel was teaching his students was actually carefully controlled snap-shooting, it became just as easy for the student to hit moving targets as still targets. If McDaniel had the time and the interest, he could easily teach a hip-shooter to hit just under a beer can to start it rolling, and then continue to hit it while in motion until his gun was empty; or McDaniel could teach the student to shoot and hit a can thrown up in the air five or six times with a pistol. A highway patrolman once asked McDaniel to teach him how to shoot out of his car while driving, to hit a particular point on a moving car that he might be chasing. McDaniel then recalled the standardized chase scenes in the Roy Rogers and Johnny Mack Brown western movies of the 1940s and worked out a complete set of training procedures based upon the type of snap-shooting, but using the left hand, that the cowboy movie-actors routinely employed while chasing one another at a full gallop on horseback in those movies.
