  Scene was shot at the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota. The 24-acre residential campus provided the film crew with great locations for filming dorm scenes. They were able to capture the quiet, secluded locations that were much needed to capture the atmosphere of the movie.

• Parking lot next to the diner

  In movie

  Scene where the girls party in the parking lot next to the diner, drinking alcohol, dancing and singing a Britney Spears song. Brit and Candy act out the robbery in front of Faith. They parody themselves: they repeat the phrases they used during the crime

  Scene was shot outside a Twistee Treat ice cream store in St. Pete Beach, Florida. The heroines dance on the parkways of the inconspicuous cafe, just like in the robbery scene. And only the distinctive ice cream cup-shaped structure gives away their true location.
