** The clothing in "Caddyshack"-- the sleeveless T's, stiletto heels, Rodney Dangerfield's plaids-- have become a character in themselves. At Indian Hill, however, sports jackets must be worn during lunch, shirts must be tucked in, cargo shorts are not permitted, nor are denim cutoffs around the pool area.
** Hats must be worn "bill forward" only.
** Cindy Morgan, who plays Terd Knight's sophisticated, promiscuous niece Lacey Underall, grew up in Chicago. Before acting, she was morning DJ at WSDM-FM which later became WLUP, "The Loop."
** Then only black actor with a line was Jackie Davis, who shines shoes at the club. After overhearing Knight's character telling a racist joke, destroys the member's golf cleats. He wasn't really an actor. In real life he was an accomplished jazz musician who had backed Louis Jordan and Ella Fitzgerald.
** The chaotic family home inn the film's opening scenes -- lines of kids waiting outside the bathrooms, bawling children and slamming doors -- was inspired by the family home in Wilmette. The house Bill Murray grew up in was a three-bedroom home with nine kids.
Bill Murray once described it as "a wreck, a constant, claustrophobic mess."
