So dive right in, and enjoy learning all the best ‘Top Gun’ facts.
The real-life ‘Top Gun’ school (U.S. Navy Fighter School) is, apparently, not a fan of the movie. Students and staff who quote the film are fined $5 each time they quote it. The reason why doesn’t seem to be public knowledge. Based on the low amount the fine, it isn’t considered a serious punishment. We can only speculate, but we’re betting the sheer number of ‘Top Gun’ quotes was getting both distracting and annoying. The Navy was actually collaborating with the production of the film, so it isn’t as if there’s some sort of anti-‘Top Gun’ sentiment going around.
