Goofs
At the prom, a microphone is aimed at the head of the bass guitarist's stack. The sound comes out of the speaker cabinet underneath it, so the microphone should be about a foot lower.
Crazy Credits
Before the end credits, the screen shows "THE END" ... and then "BUD-DY"
Alternate Versions
TV version adds a scene that occurs right before Dave and Stoney find Link in his pool. It's a conversation between Dave and his mother about her plans of opening up a "Homeless Home" in their house and using Dave's room as a place for them to stay.
