Trivia / Three Little Pigskins

• Stunt Double: When the Stooges as football players pile on to some photographers, director Ray McCarey wanted them to do the stunt themselves. They refused, saying it was too dangerous and to get stunt men to do it. McCarey assured them they wouldn't be hurt, but they still refused. McCarey got three stunt men to do it, and two of the three (the one doubling for Curly had worn extra padding for the portrayal which protected him), as well as the actors playing the photographers, wound up with broken arms and legs.
• What Could Have Been: A planned concluding scene had the Stooges, years later, telling the story to their sons. It is unknown if this scene was ever filmed, but publicity photos exist of the Stooges, each with a young actor, all made up and dressed to resemble their older counterparts.
