Trivia:

The KOK alumni that are shown throughout the movie mainly consist of fraternity members from Animal House (1978). There's also a cameo by John Vernon as a nursing home patient, better known as Dean Wormer from Animal House.

Goofs:

Revealing mistakes: When the boys join the D.O.G house, you see everyone in a circle with food in the middle. When they go around and introduce themselves and it comes to Patty's turn, she says "I'm a very gentle person" and puts a mug to her mouth, accidentally breaking it. Nothing comes out of the mug, and if she went to drink something, wouldn't it all spill out when she broke the mug?

Quotes:

Adam:Please be a size 8, please be a size 8... oh Yes!

Love the movie.

" ohhhh, look at this little handbag, this would go perfect with my shoesies!" -Doofer/ Roberta

Each character was so hilarious with all their roles. I loved Doofer/Roberta the most out of the three guys that went to the DOG sorority house, I also loved Jimmy (the guy that hit on Adina. I don't think it received that good of rating which is a shame because the movie was hilarious. I loved the awkward part in the end when Adam and jimmy are sitting at dinner together after everything has transpired and Jimmy knows what he had done to his best friend, the look on his face was priceless! Anyone who hasn't seen this movie needs to.
