It is widely believed the popular French card game Mille Bornes was derived from Touring. After several revisions, Touring was discontinued shortly after Parker Brothers picked up the American license of Mille Bornes.

* The members of They Might Be Giants can be seen playing Touring in the video for their song "Ana Ng".
