Continuity mistake: In Homer's flashback, when the pimp chases Homer, who is covered in garbage, Homer runs away from him on one side of the street.

The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson - S9-E1
Continuity mistake: During Homer's flashback, Homer passes the sign that says "Jeremiah's Johnson" twice.
Continuity mistake: In the shot before Nelson says "Hey, Simpson. Race you", Ralph is seen sitting on the row in front of Martin. But when Ralph says "Go, banana" he is suddenly sitting two rows in front of Martin. (00:05:25)
Character mistake: When Chief Wiggum shows up to arrest Nelson during the game at the end of the episode, Bart goes with Wiggum instead while pretending to be Nelson. Even a cop as incompetent as Chief Wiggum would not have mistaken Bart for Nelson since he'd had numerous dealings with both before this episode; Wiggum may not be particularly bright, but he knows who's who in Springfield.
