The real-life inspirations for the Hanson Brothers are Jeff Carlson (born July 20, 1953), Jack Carlson (born August 23, 1954), and Steve Carlson (born August 26, 1955). The brothers were all born in Virginia, Minnesota and first played together on the Marquette Iron Rangers hockey team in Marquette, Michigan.
@jameskenyon918. I couldn’t agree more! Comedy aside, it’s still one of the best sports movies, giving an honest depiction of how the minor leagues of Hockey were back then and the camera work gave us an on ice feel we haven’t seen again. Much like what Stallone did for the inside feel of the ring. Thank you for your comment 👍🏻
@@STG1313 Not just the minor leagues. We saw a lot of the over the top fights in Pittsburgh watching the Penguins get pummeled by the Flyers, Bruins and Red Wings back in this time period too. Back then the Penguins were terrible, but we got to see the good teams come in from cheap front row seats in the corners where all the action was.......Great Memories !!!
The two sports movies (so to speak) that cracked me up the most and still do to this day…obviously Slap Shot being #1 but I was hysterically laughing watching King Pin. I get it…technically it’s not a “sports movie” but neither was Slap Shot or The Bad News Bears, Tin Cup, and the Major League movies. They’re comedies that revolve around a sport, and at my age now, bowling is definitely a sport lol. Thanks so much for commenting 👍🏻
@@123Эконом32 Well I'm Canadian so we both know where this conversations going to lead to. And your putting down a classic. So if we were on the ice the gloves would be off!!!
Saw this in a theatre 2 nights ago. there were about 60 of us, and mostly in the same age range(I`m 67). There were about 8 to 10 people wearing Hanson Jerseys. We all laughed our @$$es off all through the entire movie !There are so many great character actors with roles in this that I remember well over the years. If you lived in the 70s, you really get a treat by seeing this again, looking backwards at all the crazy stuff we wore and the hairdoos and so on. Anybody can get the humor of it, but not as well as those of us who lived it........
So true! All of those movies certainly date us but even films like the Bad News Bears was hysterical. Looking back and recalling wearing that same 70’s clothing with the high knee socks with colored stripes 😆 thank so much for your comment brother 👍🏻
As someone who grew up playing hockey in the 60s and 70s, I loved this film. My dad built a rink for me every winter, in the backyard and my elementary school 1 mile away had 3 rinks. I even skated to school. Thanks for a great memory.
The greatest hockey movie ever. I was in highschool when it came out and my buddies and I went to the theater to see it. To say we laughed is an understatement. "Putting on the foil coach!" Classic!!!
I remember this on tv when I was very young. Loved the song and the movie. Hanson brothers were hilarious! This movie and Wayne Gretzky made me fall in love with hockey. Takes talent to sling a puck across a field of ice on skates. : )
Slapshot was probably the first ever movie about ice hockey we ever saw in South Africa. I remembered parts of this film from about 1978, but couldn't recall the name of the movie until I saw this clip.
Agreed, they were gritty and Grammy, in fact, I think it’s safe to say they were grunge before grunge was grunge. But they were classics, many of which still keep your interest even if you catch it while flipping through channels, you find that you stop, you pause, and let it take you back
How many times have we been in those situations with our siblings, and things aren’t going our way during a game of Risk, Monopoly, chess, etc. and we flip the board over or swipe the game pieces off the board in frustration? That scene is hysterical because we’re watching (as a child) grown men behave in the same way as we do/did. It’s perfect! Thanks so much for sharing with your comment 👍🏻
Hands down , this is the best hockey movie of all time. I used to live in Muskegon, Michigan, home of the Muskegon Mohawks a LONG time ago. If I am not mistaken, one of the Carlson brothers played there in the minors.
@@RyanRussell-h6m I don’t know how I missed that, very disappointed in myself for that one. I’m sure it’s got to be online, maybe even here on RUclips, I would like to see that. Thanks so much for getting back to me, most appreciated! 👍🏻
@@RyanRussell-h6m lmao! Eight years ago, makes it a lot easier for me. I’m lucky if I could remember what I did for work eight years ago. Thanks again, brother… I have an Old hockey game to watch tonight, God willing.👍🏻
Very funny with the music!! There will never be another hockey team like the Charlestown Chiefs!! "Listen to the fuckin' song" absolutely cracked me up!!
LMAO! There was just no way I could put a montage together for that song and not have it begin like this. It never gets old!😆 Thank you for commenting.
The speed of the professionals is fascinating to watch. The key throw in the face, fight with the fans then jail really happened. The sucker punch too during warm up.
That scene before the national anthem was filmed in the Utica Memorial Auditorium which is now The Adirondack Bank Center at the Utica Memorial Auditorium, home of the AHL Utica Comets, Utica University Hockey and MASL Utica City Football Club. The Aud was the first stressed cable roof building in the USA and the engineering model used for Madison Square Garden. Paul Newman said filming SlapShot was the most fun he ever had making a film.
I grew up in the area and remember when they filmed this. I also remember going to plenty of concerts at the "Aud". The Clinton Commets and the Utica Devils also played at the Aud. In fact, I think the last time I went to the Aud was when I got some free tickets to see the Devils back around 1991.
@@flyonwall360 Thats around the time I use to go to Utica Devil games there. I remember the first time I saw this movie I was like, "Holy Shit, thats the Utica Aud." So easy to spot with those silhouettes on the wall
Thank you Jim! Still a classic no doubt. Ironically, I recorded the song with me doing every vocal because it was a favorite of mine as a kid. That’s when I decided to put a Hanson brother montage together for a video. Everybody is loving the clips I put together, not one person said a thing about me performing the song lol! At least you mentioned the song as something you liked. Thanks so much for commenting brother 👍🏻
Ironic. I'm visiting home in Johnstown and just went to a Tomahawks game tonight in the War Memorial. I grew up here and have pictures with the Chiefs as a kid during the actual parade. By far the greatest hockey movie of all time. Hockeyville USA (Johnstown Pa)
I'm laughing so much from your wonderful response and thank you so much for doing so. It's difficult for me to think about Slap Shot and Animal House shaping anyones youth. They're not the ideal standard you want your child to emulate 🤣 but I have to admit that I certainly understand what you mean. I still find it hysterical that I recorded this song and spent several hours putting the clips together to match the length of the song. This little video has gotten so much attention from the 3.5 minute movie clip. Out of all the responses ive received, not one person has yet to acknowledge the theme song from that movie, which I am singing every vocal part lol. I guess I did it so good, everyone thought it was the original woman singing it...or, they could care less about the song, it was the montage I put together that they enjoy. Yep, it's probably the latter. 👍🏻
This movie came out during the Broad Street Bullies era, old time hockey 🤣🤣🤣 Could you imagine if hockey was played like this today? There would never be a televised game 🤣🤣🤣
Dave " the Hammer" Shultz was my hero in the day . Flyers all the way. This brought me some great memories of watching the games together with my father, miss you dad..
I was 8 when this movie made it onto our neighborhood’s very, VERY early adoption of the (then) new HBO cable service on Long Island back around ‘76-‘77. Me and my brother (naturally) loved this movie and would do our best to either recreate the brawls, or go out to play street hockey and actually BE the Hansen brothers. Such great times.
I grew up in Florida and have never actually watched a hockey game but when I saw this movie in the 70s it was so much fun to watch and the characters were so well done it's one of my favorite comedies and it reminds me so much of the 70s and it makes me miss my brothers
Thanks Mark. Excellent movie and you're right, it most certainly was accurate about the times back then as well as the times to come. Good call my friend👍

One of my top 25 favorite movies ever and I'm not a hockey fan. Saw it in the theater....well up until the "freak a goalie out" part when my mom decided it was all too much for her and stormed us out. Ha ha. I was 7. She took me because SHE wanted to see Paul Newman. I love the Hanson Bros!!!!! Great movie, great sound track and absolutely holds up today!

@@georgedavidson1221 except for the ref in the opening clip. He couldn’t skate and that short seen took hours, into the early morning until he was finally able to stop without barreling into the players. Thanks for commenting brother 👍🏻
Without a doubt the most authentic in appearance that we’ve ever seen in motion pictures. Quoting lines from this classic is like quoting lines from Jaws, the Godfather I and II, Rocky, It’s a Wonderful Life, Goodfellas, etc. Every movie mentioned (with the exception of SlapShot) took home Academy Awards. That says something when a cult classic which never received accolades, and yet it’s become part of Northern American lexicon. That’s impressive. Thanks so much for leaving a comment 👍🏻
Back in the 70,s i played hockey and was captain it is true if you were a good skater and shooter there were guys that would take you out i had my left ankle broke twice my right ankle broke once , my nose broke twice and my collar bone broke once i quit after that and the fights out in the parking lots were insane with the parents going at it it was a crazy time 😮

The Hanson brothers. Before game, Newman "what are you guys doing?" one of the brothers "putting on the foil coach" Newman just smiles as they put a layer of aluminum foil under tape over their knuckles. One of the funniest sports movies ever. 😂😂
It’s a funny scene, no question about it. The crazy thing is what they’re depicting was a relatively common practice amongst the “goons” of the minor leagues back then. That was the toughest sport around back then. Look at old pictures of hockey players, their faces have scars, as well as several teeth missing… today, they all want to be on the cover of men’s magazines. I appreciate your comment, thank you.
