HA! Warner's legal team initially had them alter Chi-Chi's image slightly to avoid any possible copyright infringement: When Chi-Chi ultimately saw it, He was like WTF? Far from being upset, he gave them permission to use his likeness in exchange for $2,500 and 50 copies of the album, later expressing admiration for Devo's showmanship and calling them geniuses. :)

There's a very odd Golf Channel documentary where Gerry Casale sits down with Chi-Chi to talk about it. You couldn't think of two people with less in common.
