Did the bounce really happen?
During the game at the end when the ball that bounced off the turf and was ruled a catch. Did that happen in real life? I'd be so pissed if it did.

I was wondering the same thing if they were screwed over by that ref in such blatant manner it was just total BS.
sharejust answered this on a much older post only to see it also being asked on page one. doh.
It did but it was no-where near as costly a decision as portrayed in the film. According to the book, it happened on a Carter 1st down, not 4th. So even if it had been correctly called as incomplete, in reality Dallas could still have continued their game-winning drive, whereas in the film it would have been a turnover. Hollywood and dramatic effect and all that.
