Did the movie just skip back a couple seconds at an inopportune time for anyone else?

Mr. Cutler is pissed! I like to imagine this is Jay Cutler's dad. (Seriously).

(Or maybe granddad. This is kid is about Jay Cutler's age IRL now.)

That's probably what the Filipino kid looked like to the cops before they gave him back to Dahmer.

I think that's the tannest I've ever seen Robert Loggia, and that's saying a lot.

The super sweaty guy (Rick Zumwalt) was a Las Vegas corrections officer in real life until his untimely death (and a real arm-wrestling champion). He was also supposedly a really, really nice guy IRL.

I remember one year the Sears catalog had a line of Over the Top toys, including an arm-wrestling stand.

For some reason the mother's medical condition or prognosis is undisclosed throughout the movie, but she's awaiting some kind of a procedure at this hospital by the way. That's not a spoiler -- you would just have to guess otherwise.

Oh, there's Terry Funk. My apologies.

He's now been in as many movies we've watched as that stunt coordinator.
