At the time of the 2013 Wall Street Journalarticle that inspired the movie, the group of men had been playing the game of tag for 23 years, starting in 1990. The year of the movie's release, 2018, marked 28 years of playing tag. The movie rounds up and states that the men have been playing the same game of tag for 30 years, which isn't all that far...
The Tag Brothers movie trims the number of tag players down to five, but in real life a total of ten friends participate in the game. They are Bill Akers, Patrick Schultheis, Sean Raftis, Mike Konesky, Brian Dennehy, Joe Tombari, Rick Bruya, Joey Caferro, Chris Ammann and Mark Mengert. "The best thing about the game is that it has kept us in touch ...
The Tag movie's true story reveals that the decades-long game of tag began in Catholic high school in the early 1980s on the campus of Gonzaga Preparatory School in Spokane, Washington. Back then it was mainly a slap on the shoulder or arm while going in and out of classrooms, or strolling down the halls. The first iteration of the game concluded w...
No. The game is only played in the month of February, and whoever is "It" at the end of the month is "It" for the rest of the year. In the Tag movie, they play during the month of May. -WSJ
No. Instead of chasing each other around the playground, the men have literally chased each other around the country, traveling by plane, car, etc. Like in the 2018 Tag movie, their wives at times act as spies and coworkers are recruited to be on the lookout for other players and bar them from entering the office. -WSJ
Yes. The Tag true story confirms that the contract exists and was drafted in January 1990 by lawyer and tag participant Patrick Schultheis. -WSJ
No. There are no direct one-to-one correlations between the movie characters and the real-life friends. For example, Ed Helm's character is a composite of several of the real Tag players (People.com), and the reporter who follows the group around for an article is male in real life, not female. The Tag Brothers certainly inspired the movie characte...
No. Like in the 2018 movie, there are no tag-backs, meaning you can't immediately tag the same player who just tagged you. You also have to answer honestly if someone asks you if your "It." -WSJ
Yes. Like Ed Helms' character in the Tag movie, Patrick Schultheis was tagged at his father's funeral. "I was in the front row, and so, guys were going up to communion, pattin' me on the shoulder, and Beef comes up and patted me on the shoulder and mouthed to me, 'You're It.' ... My dad would've thought it was funny." -CBS Sunday Morning
In addition to flying across the country and breaking into each other's homes in the middle of the night, players have hid in trunks, put on wigs (including one member disguising himself as a granny), donned fake mustaches, and have even pretended to be homeless. -Mirror Online
