The Thai waitress was the actual waitress who worked at the Sambo's restaurant.
Andy Kaufman made his last public appearance at the Los Angeles theatrical premiere for this movie.
Rockabilly singer Ray Campi was also considered as a possible foil for wrestler Freddie Blassie.
Sambo's was an actual restaurant chain which lived out its life in the early to mid-1980s. Midway through the chain's history, its inexcusably objectionable name was abbreviated, and Sambo's became Sam's.
"Andy Kaufman: The life of a part-time wrestler is no laughing matter. It's not just fun and games like some people think. You work out, train constantly, push your body to the limit of endurance - and nobody seems to care. I have wrestled and defeated over 400 women, and what do I get? The men call me a wimp, the women say I'm a sexist pig. But then again, I guess you have to expect that sort of thing when you're a famous TV star like I am."
"Andy Kaufman: To me, it was a long bus ride, but it's not every day that you get to eat with the King of Men."
