Legacy
Goofy Gymnastics is one of Goofy's most popular and famous cartoons. The cartoon is also shown in Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1988) during the scene where Roger and Eddie hide in a cinema. Roger Rabbit laughs out loud with the cartoon, praises Goofy's timing and finesse and claims he is a "genius". This is however an anachronism, since Who Framed Roger Rabbit takes place in the year 1947, while Goofy Gymnastics was released in 1949. This cartoon was also shown in September 2002 as part of the "Salute to Sports" episode of House of Mouse.
