Trivia Provided by: The Internet Movie Database.

• The main helicopter used in the film is a Sikorsky S-92. At the time of production, the S-92 was not an FAA certified aircraft (still under development) and without much of an interior. No cast or film crew were allowed aboard the helicopter during operation, and all interior shots had to be faked.
• References to characters in To Kill a Mockingbird (1962): - Boo Radley: When Winona Ryder is making up stories on the spot, she tells the story of falling off a tree when she was younger. - Atticus Finch: When she is going into what is supposed to be her apartment with Deeds (Adam Sandler) and says hello to Mrs. Finch, as she walks away she mumbles under her breath, “Atticus.”
• The sign that says “Welcome to Mandrake Falls” and continues with a poem is from the original film, Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936).
• When talking to Longfellow on the phone and still pretending to be a school nurse, Babe says that a boy named Billy Barty is in her office sick. This is a tribute to the actor Billy Barty who died in 2000, only three months before production started.
• Director Cameo: [Steven Brill] as the violinist at Madison Square Garden.
• Rob Schneider reprises his “delivery guy” role from _Big Daddy (1999)_.
• Extensive location filming took place in New Milford, Connecticut on its photogenic Bank Street. Noted for its beautiful New England town green, it’s often used in television commercials and film shoots. New Milford is coincidentally the weekend home of film co-star Peter Gallagher.

• During the scene where Deeds beats up Marty in the street, during the first recording, Allen Covert got span around by Sandler, slipped on the sidewalk and his skull hit the concrete with no protection and was unconscious for a minute.
