Factual error: Legitimate religious institutions are not subject to property taxes.
Mystery Woman: You contemptible pig! I remained celibate for you. I stood in the back of a cathedral, waiting, in celibacy, for you, with three hundred friends and relatives in attendance. My uncle hired the best Romanian caterers in the state. To obtain the seven limousines for the wedding party, my father used up his last favor with Mad Pete Trullo. So for me, for my mother, my grandmother, my father, my uncle, and for the common good, I must now kill you, and your brother.
Question: Did John Belushi do all the dancing, especially the turnovers in church, by himself or was it a double?
Answer: It was a double, and the "making of" documentary on the DVD shows this.
To be fair, John did do a lot of flips and dancing as Jake; just not all of them in the movie.
