After some "adventures" they finally get to Aspen where, using the lost money they live it up and fight for Mary's heart.
Acting
Jeff Daniels went full idiot, risking his entire serious actor reputation.
Writing
The toilet scene script reportedly just said 'Lloyd has accident.'
Practical Effects
Real frozen urine icicles. Method filmmaking at its most disgusting.

Director
Peter Farrelly
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Jeff Daniels was cast specifically because the Farrellys wanted someone known for drama to commit fully to stupidity.
This film basically invented the 'dumb buddy' template that dominated 90s comedy until it collapsed under its own weight.
