No outtakes on BASEketball laserdisc

The BASEketball laserdisc just came out yesterday (January 19) with one thing missing - the "exclusive behind the scenes outtakes" which was advertised and printed on the cover of the laserdisc. The VHS and DVD versions do have these outtakes but for some reason, the laserdisc version did not even though these outtakes were supposed to be on the laserdisc version as well. Looks like Universal might have to recall the laserdisc version of BASEketball or at least change the cover and delete the "Contains exclusive behind the scenes outtakes" tag on the cover. False advertising on the part of Universal.

To be quite honest, you're not missing much. Nothing really hilarious. There are a few cool things...

Different version of the "Dude" argument scene. The "Dude"s are fired off a lot slower and it's more like an actual argument.

Different version of one of the scenes with Dirk Jansen and Remer. Dirk tries psyching out Remer by saying "Hey Remer, make sure your foot's not over the line!" In the original version, Remer says "Hey Jansen, nice psyche out, dingleberry!" but in the outtake, he says "Hey Jansen, make sure my dick's not up your ass." The latter, IMO, is better...

You forgot Trey in a tuxedo..looking very drunk...oh, and the goat outtakes were adorable..
