Factual error: When Arnie goes to visit Dennis in the hospital, on Thanksgiving, the date November 23 is shown just before the camera pans across the TV which is on and it shows the Oakland Raiders playing the Detroit Lions. That year the Lions played the Broncos on Thanksgiving. Three days later, on Sunday, the Raiders played the Seattle Seahawks. That Season though the Lions did play the Raiders on November 19, which would have been 4 days before.

Arnie Cunningham: Oh man, there is nothing finer than being behind the wheel of your own car! Except maybe for pussy.
Trivia: When Arnie and Leigh discover that the car has been trashed at Darnell's Garage and Arnie suddenly turns on Leigh, yelling at her and shoving her backwards, note the look of shock on her face - it's real. Keith Gordon (Arnie) explains on the DVD that in rehearsing the scene, he purposely didn't react as violently, so when the scene was shot, his behavior change actually shocked Alexandra Paul (Leigh).
