** Pay attention to Tackleberry's run and you will hear at least seven gunshots... this is significant because the old High-Standard riot guns only carry 5 rounds. This implies Tackleberry specifically brought extra ammo with him for the sole purpose of firing far more rounds than necessary.

* In one of the pranks Mahoney pulls on Proctor, the former waits until the latter has entered a port-a-potty and has it hooked to a crane, and dropped in the middle of a crowded football stadium.

** Made even funnier in the TV dub when Tackleberry's cursing is cut and replaced with less offensive terms. Harris' reaction works just as well and makes one believe Tackleberry would've actually said something so wacky.

* Larvell Jones using his vocal sound effects to various degrees, from 'playing' an arcade video game to imitating the sound of machine gun fire. This technically counts for all the Police Academy movies, especially when he uses this to troll almost anyone with, in particular Harris and Mauser.
* The entire scene with Lassard having to give a speech while simultaneously receiving the attentions of a call girl is sidesplitting. And after the speech is done, he gets back to his senses, [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} sort off]] and walks back to the podium to figure out what was going on. Mahoney emerges from beneath.

* This one plays out over a few scenes. First, Harris gives Zed some flak and Zed mumbles "Jerk." When Harris reacts, a girl who's coming onto him replies, "He said bye," obviously trying to keep things from escalating. Zed later gets his revenge in the locker room by switching out Harris's deodorant for pepper spray. Later still, Harris interrupts Zed's class (with his arms kept up in a brace) to warn everyone to keep an eye on their pepper spray in future, and Zed finishes the BrickJoke by saying, "Bye," heeding what happened earlier.

House simply exploits his massive bulk, takes three steps forward, and stops the crowd. For Hooks, it looks like she's struggling at first until their refusal to comply hits her BerserkButton and triggers her infamous SuddenlyShouting, which scares the crowd enough to back ''all the way into the pool''!
