Parodies
A parody was made in the animated comedy series The Simpsons. The episode, "Faith Off" (season eleven, 2000) altered the chorus during a football game's half-time rendition, lending support to Homer Simpson's alma mater, Springfield University. It sings: "I had the halftime of my life, and I owe it all to S.U."
In the Family Guy episode "Blue Harvest", Obi-Wan Kenobi (Herbert) sings a cover version to Luke Skywalker (Chris) while stormtroopers and the other heroes cheer on and serve as back-up dancers.
The song and its dance scene are parodied by Princess Clara and Spanky Ham in Drawn Together episode "Dirty Pranking No. 2".

Famous quotes containing the word parodies:
“The parody is the last refuge of the frustrated writer. Parodies are what you write when you are associate editor of the Harvard Lampoon. The greater the work of literature, the easier the parody. The step up from writing parodies is writing on the wall above the urinal.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
