      Euthanasia. After her experience with Van and his Naked Marathon, Gwen decides to go back to real journalism. But Elliot picks a joke at her piece and pushes her on, sending her to Van's Lambda party.

    What's the name of Van's dog?Van Wilder: Party Liaison

      Collosus. Hutch refers to him as C-Los once at the beginning, but other than that, he's referred to by Van and others as Colossus. If you couldn't pick it up during the film itself, the dog's also credited as Colossus.

    During the 'operation' Van performs on his dog, someone wipes his brow. Who?Van Wilder: Party Liaison

      Taj. Just before the scene ends and Van delivers the cream buns to Richard, Taj dabs Van's brow with a piece of gauze. The act has been somewhat reenacted in Kal Penn's movie, "Harold and Kumar Go To Whitecastle".

      Gibson. It's hard to see, but it is written on his badge. He drops his coffee when he sees the jumper on the top of Van's dormitory and then later the airbag on his vehicle sends his coffee all over him.

      Ming Wong. Hutch, who's standing guard and checking identification, sees right through the guy's attempt and sends him packing saying: "Sorry err, Ming, but you ain't Asian!'

    Darius is one of the players for the Chickadees. What number does he have?Van Wilder: Party Liaison

      5. Darius is a member of Coolidge's basketball team who, for the most part, are only seen for the one scene of the film. He's the most noteable for being the subject of Van's line: "Darius, I want you all over that ball like a fat kid on a cupcake!" He also asks about girls from Mount Hollyoak, giving Van sufficient ammunition to fire up the team to a comeback victory.

    What is the most expensive of Vance Wilder Sr.'s expenses?Van Wilder: Party Liaison

      The thoroughbred. The winner is...the thoroughbred at $200,000!
