Trivia
Ferris laments not having his own car, however he owned a synthesizer, which, in 1984, cost $8,000.
Quotes
Ferris:
Pardon my French, but Cameron is so tight that if you stuck a lump of coal up his ass, in two weeks you'd have a diamond.
Goofs
Ben Stein is billed as an Economics teacher, however a still frame of Ferris's schedule on Rooney's computer (when Rooney is checking Ferris' absences) shows that he doesn't take an economics class.
Crazy Credits
Ferris comes out of bathroom: "You're still here? It's over. Go home."
Alternate Versions
A line in the theatrical version is "The man could squash my nuts into oblivion." The TV version replaces "nuts" with a *very* badly-overdubbed "brains."
