On the putting green, Scotsman MacRory laughs as his ball sits directly within Bugs Bunny's putting line, thus forcing Bugs to bank-shot his putt with a cue stick. This is a reference to the 'Stymie' rule that was part of golf and was in force until abolished internationally in 1952. Modern rules of golf dictate that MacRory must mark his ball to allow Bugs to putt out.
The title is based on the song "My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean", a traditional Scottish folk song which remains popular in Western culture.
Bugs mentions three Southern California landmarks as he peruses his map: (Rancho) Cucamonga, Wilshire Boulevard, and the La Brea Tar Pits. He also uses the hard g pronunciation of Los An-gha-leeze, common at the time of this short.
During the golf game, McRory guffaws quite similarly to the laughs of his American cousin, Yosemite McSam.
The signs noting High Road, Low Road and Loch Lomond are a nod to the popular Scottish folksong The Bonnie Banks o' Loch Lomond.
