Sarah Holcomb, who played Danny's love interest "Maggie O'Hooligan," also appeared as the 13 year old jailbait daughter of the Mayor in "Animal House."

Her true story is "chronicled" in the 2004 movie "Stateside."Thanks to Rene' Thurston

There's often fake stuff floating round, y'know? -Like the 'ghost boy' that can allegedly be seen in "Three Men And A Baby".
The following trivia for "Caddyshack" is apparently bogus. If you disagree or have additional info, please update us.Myth: Some of the scenes in this movie were improvised, including the part where Chevy Chase's golfball accidentally breaks Bill Murray's window.
Actually, the scene between Chevy & Bill wasn't added until it was realized that the two biggest stars in the movie never share the screen. So, Chevy, Bill & Harold Ramis (the director) went to lunch, wrote the concept for the scene, and shot it that very afternoon. Just think, had it not been for that lunch, we would never know about smokable and playable grass :)
