No, it is based on Homer's Odyssey. Some events though are based on fact. George "Babyface" Nelson was a real bank robber. The flood at the end is most likely a reference to the Tennessee Valley Authority when they flooded towns to make Dam's for electricity. Pappy O'Daniels was real, as was his radio show, only he was really from Texas not Mississippi.
