This is a funny and true bit of info. Artie Lange, co-star in dirty work, does an onstage comedy bit now where he asks the audience if anyone has seen the movie Dirty Work. Artie then walks up to the people that raised their hands and gives them 20 dollars while saying, "Their's your refund!".

Chevy Chase, during an April 6, 2001 talk given at Harvard University as part of a lecture series on political humor, suggested that one possible reason for the film's box office flop was that the studio had cut several of the more outrageous gags out of the script before filming. One scene Chase specifically mentioned involved MacDonald and Lange taking revenge on a football team by leaving a plate of donuts in a conspicuous location before practice. The football team devours the pile of donuts, only to see at the bottom of the pile a Polaroid photo of MacDonald and Lange with their pants down and the donuts piled on their erect penises.
