Facts about
The scene where the camel spits in Turkey's (Bob Hope's) face wasn't planned. The camel did it of its own accord while the cameras were rolling, and Hope's recoil and Bing Crosby's reaction were so funny that it was left in the final cut of the film.
"Lux Radio Theater" broadcast a 60 minute radio adaptation of the movie on April 5, 1943 with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope reprising their film roles.
