Marvin Schector (John Ratzenberger) claims that Cucamonga is Apache for "enthusiasm", Cheyenne for "no monkey business", Navaho for "camp spirit", Hopi for "hospitality", Comanche for "pleasant dreams", Mohawk for "nutrition", Paiute for "teamwork", Shoshone for "it's not how you play the game, it's whether you win or lose", and Shawnee for "appreciation". In reality, Cucamonga derives its name from a Native American word meaning "sandy place".
