The Naked Gun

Other mistake: Pay attention to one of the early innings of the baseball game as one of the Angels' players hits a home run. Though probably intentionally set up this way as to avoid any problems of "logo patents" and such with the real-life MLB California Angels team, he is wearing a helmet without the team logo on it. Also, it is at Dodger Stadium. (01:07:35)

Other mistake: While Frank Drebbin is saying the words "dew glistening on the grass" you can clearly see a woman in the audience at the bottom of the screen repeating every word he says. (01:19:55)

Factual error: At the onset of the baseball game, take a look at the Angel's catcher as Mariner Jay Johnstone steps up to bat. You will see he is wearing just a standard baseball hat under his catcher's helmet. MLB rules requires some form of certified (protective inside and out) plastic helmet for catchers, and thus this would not be allowed. (01:07:35)
