## Differences From “Go Beavers!”

* The biggest most obvious difference is that Norbert’s girlfriend Treeflower is a major character in this fanfiction, even though she did not appear at all in the original episode.
* There’s an prologue scene which takes place before the beginning of the original episode.
* Norbert and Treeflower buy a Chili Dog and Maple Bark Nachos for food, when in the original episode Norbert doesn’t buy any food whatsoever during the beginning of the game.
* As shown in the first illustration in the DeviantArt version of the fanfic, the Beaver hat that Daggett wears is slightly different than the Beavers hat he wore in the original episode.
* There’s more dialogue between Norbert and Daggett after Daggett says “**BLASPHEMY!!! ARE YOU MAD!?!?**” and right before Daggett storms off to the field.
* In the original episode, Norbert already knows about the lesson of “the best way to teach is to set a good example.” But in this fanfiction, Treeflower tells him about this lesson.
* In this fanfiction, Norbert takes out a notepad and writes down all the offenses Daggett makes during the game (similar to what real football referees do). In the original episode, he doesn’t do this.
* In this fanfiction, Daggett says “ “You know, maybe I am taking this a little too seriously. I’m sorry, you guys…”. In the original episode he only says “You know, maybe I am taking this a little too seriously.”
* In this fanfiction, the orchestra plays the songs “The Lineman”, “Hit and Run”, and “Dangerous A” (which have all been used in SpongeBob SquarePants). In the original episode, they play the songs "The Funeral March" (twice), "The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze", "London Bridge Is Falling Down", the Can-can, "Taps", and "Take Me Out to the Ball Game".
* There’s a scene of Norbert and Treeflower kissing with the Football Kiss Cam being shown on them at the end. This was not in the original episode.

## Trivia

* This fanfiction was originally titled “Football Field Romance”, however after realizing that Norbert and Treeflower’s relationship wouldn’t be a major element in the fanfiction, the title was changed,
* This fanfiction was uploaded 26 years after “Mission to the Big Hot Thingy” and “I Dare You” first aired.
* It is revealed that the football match Norbert, Daggett, and Treeflower went to was the Thirty-Fifth annual game, meaning Beaver Football first started in 1961.
* This is the first instance of Norbert calling Treeflower “Flowie”.
* This is the first time Treeflower uses the word “Spoot”.
