Factual error: Without getting into the physics of the whole thing, there is no way a shotgun, and especially a shotgun with the kind of shells they were using, could knock a full grown man down like that.

Continuity mistake: During the football game where Jeremy and Sack "tackle" for the second time, Gloria and Mrs. Cleary are startled and jump up from their seats. In one shot Mrs. Cleary's glass is filled about half way with a redish liquor, but in the next it is a hardly visible clear liquid.
Jeremy Grey: I got a stage five, virgin, clinger.
Trivia: John Beckwith's line, "I think we only use 10 per cent of our hearts", was ad-libbed by Owen Wilson.

Chosen answer: The substance is Visine Eye drops which is an old bartender trick for obnoxious drunks. Just a couple of drops in a drink will indeed make the person feel ill.
