Filming in San Francisco was attended by gay and lesbian rights activists and demonstrators, and San Francisco Police Department riot police were present at every location daily to deal with the crowds. Protesters outside of filming locations held signs that said "Honk if you love the 49ers" and "Honk if you love men". The protesters used lasers and whistles to interfere with the filming. Even though the police were on set and a restraining order was in place, producer Alan Marshall individually picked out each protester he wanted arrested. This disrupted production, leading to a citizen's arrest of Marshall, which didn't lead to anything with the local police department.
