Dawson Casting: Robert Carradine (Skolnick) and Curtis Armstrong (Booger) were thirty and thirty-one when the movie came out, playing eighteen year olds.
Not to mention that the actor playing the Dean of the college is only two months older than Armstrong.
Reverse-Hey, It's That Guy!: Booger gets a literal Shout-Out (the music actually sings, "Hey, it's that guy!") in an "80s Montage" scene on a Progressive Commercial starring Flo.
The Other Darrin: A pilot for a TV series was produced in 1991 and the returning characters were all recast. Rob Stone played Lewis, Lightfield Lewis was Gilbert, Grant Gelt was Harold and Jeff Benson was Ogre.
Anthony Edwards did not return for the third movie, so he was played by Mike Greenwood in a one scene.
Playing Against Type: John Goodman has almost always been associated with kind and affable Big Guys, here he plays the petty, cruel, and almost criminally negligent Coach Harris.
