Factual error: The advertising boards on the upper level of the arena for Delta Airlines and United Airlines are anachronistic for 1999. The logo for Delta did not take that form until 2007, and the logo for United did not take that form until their merger with Continental Airlines in 2010.
American Underdog (2021)
1 picture
Directed by: Andrew Erwin, Jon Erwin
Starring: Anna Paquin, Zachary Levi, Hayden Zaller
Other mistake: After seeing Joe Montana play in Super Bowl XIX, young Kurt said, "I knew I wanted to be that guy." When he goes outside to pass the football, young Kurt has "Warner 13" on the back of his jersey - not Montana's #16 but the #13 that he could not know in advance that he would eventually wear during most of his adult career. (Jersey numbers are not necessarily that available for a player to have his pick). (00:02:02 - 00:02:33)
Suggested correction: This is trivia at best, certainly not a mistake. While it's true he wore #12 in high school, there's no reason he couldn't have liked #13 as a child. And, many key position players do get to pick their number, from the available range, which Kurt certainly did.
Kurt Warner: Do what you can do, till you can do what you want to do?
Trivia: Throughout the movie, Kurt Warner wore jersey #13, but he is also known as jersey #10 for the St. Louis Rams in the 1999 play-offs.
