Popular Culture

Gary Dell'Abate from The Howard Stern Show got his nickname from his mispronunciation of Baba Looey's name. On July 26, 1990, Gary called Baba Looey, Baba Booey.

In the Daria episode "Lane Miserables", Trent asked the title character "Why did Quick Draw McGraw hang around with that freaky little mule?"

The name is a parody of "Babalu", a traditional Cuban song made popular in the United States by Desi Arnaz.
