what movie was todays clip from

I have absolutely no clue. I looked at his IMDB profile, excluded the movies I knew and Google searched for scenes but didn't get anywhere. It kind of seemed familiar like I had seen it once though but probably when I was younger than 8.

Obviously Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Great movie and I like how they replaced the Red Wings jersey with the Blackhawk's jersey.

Also they kept on saying Mr. Rich...is that in reference to Jerry Rich? (Rich Harvest Farms owner)...if so I was assuming those were his cars.

Yes. That was filmed at Rich Harvest in Mr. Rich's car collection building.

So I am wondering if we get this scene...
