Did You Know?
| Trivia | According to Steve Zahn on Couch Surfing (2018), the "COME ON AH YEEEEEEEH-HA!" line was from the middle of a Neil Diamond performance. Neil asked about that line, and they replied they were saying his words. Neil didn't believe this and they had him listen to the part of his performance and he realized he did say that. See more » |
| Goofs | When Judith is being fed the sandwich from Arby's you can see that the bun switches back and forth between a sesame seed bun and a kaiser bun. See more » |
