A bit of revisionist history here as Dennis Weaver tells some kids a story about Smokey the Bear and how he was named that way. The Smokey shown here is actually true, but the original idea was created 20 years before this film was made. ha ha! A bit of snarky humor happens when Dennis Weaver refuses to be recognized by anyone, and Gordon Jump doesn't get recognized by anyone.
