Revealing mistake: When Bluto is watching the sorority girls have their pillow fight and he falls down with the ladder, you can see him land on a grass mat that is cut into the lawn. It's funny because you can see the grass push in. (00:40:00)

More mistakes in Animal House
Hoover: They confiscated everything, even the stuff we didn't steal!
Trivia: On a budget of only $3 million, the producers offered actor Donald Sutherland a choice of $35,000 cash for 2 days work or 2% of the film's box office gross. Because nobody in the cast or crew believed that "Animal House" would be a hit, Sutherland opted for the $35,000 cash. As it happened, the $3 million comedy went on to gross over $141 million at the box office. Meaning that Sutherland would've made $2.8 million if he had chosen 2% of the gross.
Question: Kent Dorfman is a member of Delta fraternity, so why, later in the movie, is he seen in a military uniform with the Omega fraternity?
Answer: He's in R.O.T.C. The Omegas are in the class, too. Military uniforms are required dress.
Captain Defenestrator
That was not a fraternity event. During the sixties, male college students were required to be in the Reserve Officer Training Corps. That required classes and drilling. The fraternity members would get mixed together, just like any regular class.
