Trivia: After Peter tells Steve The Pirate he is not a pirate, Steve gets depressed and starts walking down the Las Vegas sidewalk. A truck drives by, yells something to Steve, and throws a cup. The man that threw the cup is in fact the director of "Dodgeball," Rawson Marshall Thurber. (01:05:15)

Trivia: When the $100,000 is presented, White says in Spanish, "Donde esta la biblioteca". This means, "Where is the library?" (01:00:30)

Continuity mistake: When the guys are all sitting around (after the car wash) they are throwing ideas to save the gym. In one shot Gordon pulls his magazine out of his bag, but a split second later in a closer shot he pulls the magazine out again. (00:15:15)
