I grew up in Johnstown PA. I remember when this film was being shot. I was a kid, but it was very exciting. A few of my friends were cast in it. And I saw the Hanson brothers play at the War Memorial when the team was called The Johnstown Jets.

My friend met Paul Newman on the street. His dad saw Newman walking forwards them. He told my friend to walk up to him and introduce himself. He did it and Newman talked with them for a few moments.
