- TriviaCycling enthusiast manager Viscount Cobram (Paul Müller) forces the clerks to take part to a cycling race with his same, the Cobram Cup. Since 2014 the Cobram Cup is organized for real in Desenzano del Garda by Fantozzi fan and bike builder Mario Bresciani. The partecipants are dressed like the actors in the movie and usually spoof a character of their choice. The organizing committee's name is Megaditta, as like the nickname of Fantozzi's company.

Featured review
Here, in former USSR, Fantozzi movies are relatively well-known and shown on TV often. It's not a masterpiece, it's a simple comedy made by Italians for Italians but occasionally it achieved some international acclaim; many nations have such ones, for example, in former USSR comedies about Shurik adventures ("Operation Y and Other Shurik's Adventures", "Prisoner of the Caucasus, or Shurik's New Adventures", "Ivan Vasilyevich Changes Occupation") are cult classic, but not well-known abroad. As for Fantozzi movies - they are very funny sometimes, sometimes silly, but generally good. This satire makes me feel sorry for poor Fantozzi and his poor family (especially his poor daughter), I think it's too pessimistic.
Of course, it's much better than most of modern American comedies made by Americans for Americans, which can be seen on our screens because of their big budget (of course, I don't mean Woody Allen - I'm his fan).
