  • Hilarious in Hindsight: In the final scene, conspiracy theorist Roy McGill, defending his conspiracy theory that the Super Bowl is fixed, tells Liz Warner to "take the points, hit the over" for the next Super Bowl. While it's not exactly a prophet-level prediction — over/under is a binary choice and the dividing line is deliberately set at a point where either option is reasonably plausible, so even a random guess has a decent chance of coming up correct — in the subsequent Super Bowl (XLIII), betting the over on points actually would have been a winning betnote .
  • Retroactive Recognition: Josh Gad, who plays McGill, would go one to play Olaf.
