Facts about

Sammy Davis Jr., required wooden blocks attached to the pedals on the garbage truck he drove in the film so that he could reach them.
The entire Ocean's Eleven does not all appear at the end as previously stated, since they were leaving Tony Bergdorf's (Richard Conte) funeral who was one of the eleven. There are however at least two scenes with all of the group together, at Spyros Acebos (Akim Tamiroff) house and at the Bowling Alley.
In a scene between Danny (Frank Sinatra) and Adele (Patrice Wymore), Adele throws a dish of candy at Danny. The throwing of the dish was ad-libbed, which accounts for the genuine look of surprise on Sinatra's face and the faces of his co-stars.
