History Trivia / SuperTroopers

* DyeingForYourArt: The Broken Lizard members all grew real mustaches, and everyone was so amused at how patchy Kevin Heffernan's turned out that our first look at him is a giant close-up of it. They also specifically worked out their forearms to try and make them look more burly on camera.

* [[FakeNationality Fake German]]: The male tourist is actually Dutch.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Sort of. Bobbi, Thorny's girlfriend and mother of his son has two of her three scenes cut from some television edits. While her second scene where Throny and her have fun with the german couple is edited out obviously because of nudity, her introduction scene where they watch their son Arlo play baseball was probably cut for time contraints leaving almost no introduction of her. Her only remaining scene being where the troopers get a letter from the Governor. Besides a mention of her in an earlier scene TV viewers [[RememberTheNewGuy may be confused on exactly who she is.]]

* ColbertBump: This film gets a bit more attention after the 'shenanigan' scene was partially included in ''WebAnimation/PhoenixWrong''.

* FakeAmerican: Though he does an extremely convincing job with the accent, Brian Cox is actually Scottish.

* SavedFromDevelopmentHell: Fans spent years clamoring for a sequel but Broken Lizard had trouble getting it greenlit. Although they eventually got studio approval, they had to finance the film themselves. The troupe started a Website/{{Indiegogo}} [[https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/super-troopers-2 fundraiser]]; the $2 million goal was attained in just the first 24 hours.
