When Dally, Ponyboy and Johnny are in the car in the Dairy Queen parking lot, a little girl comes up to them and asks for some change. That is a young Sofia Coppola, daughter of Francis Ford Coppola, who is now also a notable movie director.
When C. Thomas Howell takes the first punch of the rumble scene, he was actually hit and spit up blood.
The scene where Dallas tips over in the chair at the drive-in was not scripted, that is actually a blooper they decided to leave in the final film.
