Frank Vega: I hope you're a righty.
- The lines "I need an ambulance!" and "You're leaking" are a reference to the original Youtube video this movie is based on.
- The bus chase scene is a digitally altered version of the one from Red Heat (1988).
- Bad Ass was loosely based on the AC Transit Bus fight, which was filmed by a bystander and became a viral video on YouTube.
- The name of the character "Amber Lamps" is based on a quote from the original AC Transit Bus Fight video. Upon getting hit in the face, one of the men in the video requests an ambulance but mispronounces it as "amber-lamps".
- The food truck featured in the beginning of the film is Slammin' Sliders.
