Thanks to Jessica
When filming the scene near the beginning when Macaulay Culkin is asking John Candy all the questions at the breakfast table, he couldn't remember them and he said it was too fast for him to remember. John Candy wrote the whole script for the scene out and put it on top of his head for Mac to look up at so they could keep up the quick pace of the questioning. (You know, the questions that end with "you ask lots of questions" then "I'm a kid, that's my job")

The noise that Buck's car makes when it backfires is that of a gun shot and a firecracker.

The exterior shot of the bowling alley Buck takes the kids to is of Palace Bowl (formerly) on 25th Street in Cicero, IL. The interior scenes were at Windy City Bowling (formerly) on 21st & Cicero Avenue also in Cicero. Windy City was also the home of Mickey's Bar, an alleged Al Capone front.
