Did You Know?
| Trivia | The director wanted Lea Thompson and Tom Cruise to go undercover to remember what high school was like. They went to separate schools, and while Cruise was spotted after just one day because someone recognized him from Taps (1981), Thompson went four days, was asked out by many guys and got caught smoking.

| Goofs | Pennsylvania high schools are grouped according to size of a school's student body. This is to avoid small schools having to play much larger one. Clearly, Ampipe is a much smaller school than Walnut Heights so they would not have ever played each other in football. See more » |
