- The film is the first feature film directed by Harold Remis.
- Bill Murray improvised a series of "Cinderella"-style stories in the audition and was selected by the director into the crew.
- The scene where the famous Ty Webb's golf ball hits Carl Spackler's crumbling house does not exist in the original script. This is the director who realized that there are no two comedy superstars Chevy Chase and Bill Murray appearing at the same time in the film and specially added it. It was written by the three at lunch. Although it seems to have nothing to do with the whole idea, this scene is widely regarded as the most funny part of the whole film.
- Cindy Morgan, the actor of Lacy Underall, said that the Chevy Chase massage session in the film was also an improvisation.
- Brian Doyle-Murray, who plays Lou, is one of the film's screenwriters and the only person on the crew who can be called a "caddy".
