All three were originally slated to co-star in Slap Shot together, but when Jack was unexpectedly called up by the Edmonton Oilers, he left the project. He was then replaced by yet another Jet: Defenseman Dave Hanson, who supplied the fictitious brothers with their now-famous last name. Hanson and the Carlson brothers would lighten things up via all manner of practical jokes. Even pretending to play hockey can leave you all scratched up. While filming the skirmish, both men injured their groin muscles.

It's definitely a fighting town. People here love it and have their heels dug in and won't let the town die. The town will receive a major boost this weekend when Steve Carlson, Jeff Carlson and Dave Hanson, better known as the Hanson brothers, will host the "Boys Are Back in Town" to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the release of the movie.
