!!General trivia:

* According to [[http://www.golden-road.net/index.php/topic,23753.msg415278.html#msg415278 Scott Robinson]], former staff member at ''Series/ThePriceIsRight'', the Big Wheel used in that scene was a duplicate that Sandler's company paid for.
-->"One of the ideas for the scene (which they ultimately didn't shoot) was to do something that would have required external modifications to the wheel, which the show wouldn't have wanted to do to its actual game piece."
-->"The other reason a duplicate wheel was necessary was that they wanted the wheel to keep spinning once Jill was knocked out. So the duplicate wheel had no braking system built in -- once you pulled down on the handles, it just kept spinning and spinning and spinning."
* This was the final film appearance of Creator/RegisPhilbin, who died in 2020.
