  • Presented as a special category just for this movie: the most 1991 moment.
  • Nominees are G Money's green velour Adidas suit, Kangol hats, fat rope chains, Color Me Bad appearing while they were cool, and the opening credits with happy hip-hop, big graphics, news anchors and a helicopter.
  • The Kangols are crossed off because they are an 80s item and the movie is set in 1986 to 1989.
  • Flavor Flav as the club MC is added as a nominee.
  • Nino's first walk into the club, dapping people, skipping the weapons check and drinking champagne through a straw, is called the coolest 30 seconds and why people wanted to be Nino.
  • The green velour Adidas suit wins; it came back in style.
