Tina Fey
editHow could THIS movie have forced her to join SAG? She was in Mean Girls, which premiered two years before, that, if anything, would have made her be forced to join SAG. Right?? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Loveshams (talk • contribs) 06:52, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
why no wide release?
editArtie announced after the movie's first week or so that it would be widely release, apparently based on its first week's gross. A few weeks later, Artie said it's no longer going to be widely released. It would be relevant to the article to post what derailed the wide release. JimmyTheSaint 16:04, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Budget is 2.8 million according to "The Numbers"
beer?
editdoes this movie really have anything to do with beer? if not, how is it a competing films with a similar plot to beer fest?
- Similar name.. LilDice 23:51, 2 September 2006 (UTC)
- I am removing the reference as the films do not have similar plots at all. Olessi 01:13, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

It's true that the plots aren't similar. However, Artie Lange has explained on the Sirius Howard Stern Show that the film company was afraid that people whould confuse the "Beer League" with the movie "Beerfest." They didn't want two movies that begin with the word "Beer" to be in the theatres at the same time. Which is why the title of the movie was changed to "Artie Lange's Beer League." The term, "Beer League" refers to the uncompetitive nature of neighborhood slow-pitch softball leagues. It usually atracts un-athletic beer drinking working class men for whom softball isn't so much a passion as it is an excuse to get together after the game to drink.

Where does Lange Ex-girlfriend appear?
editDoes anyone know where Artie Lange's exgirlfriend Dana appears in the movie? She might have been one of Linda Salvo's friends (that's Artie's girlfriend in the movie.) I know she was put in the movie when the two were still together. It's interesting now that they are broken up that she's still in it. Lugh 14:28, 18 September 2006 (UTC)
- Dana appears as Ralph Macchio's mother-in-law...she's only seen in the "no one talks about what happens at a bachelor party" montage. She asks Macchio's father-in-law (the one who strangled Artie) what happens at bachelor parties, and he says, "Nothing happened." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.166.195.2 (talk • contribs) 20:23, 20 September 2006 (UTC)
