The great mystery - when was this film supposed to be set?


I get an early 1990s feel from it... BUT

at the beginning of the film Vince Vaughn receives a message from the video store that his porn movie and "Mona Lisa Smile (2003)" are overdue.

At the beginning of the movie, there is a picture of White from 1987 and he says that was him, six years ago. But I don't think the movie takes place in 1993 either.

exactly

That's part of the joke. Later, they say something about ESPN-8 "The Ocho" being around since 1999.

The joke is that White is a moron who can't do simple math.
