Sodapop and Two-Bit were once jailed for doing acrobatics downtown.
The Curtis family used to go to church.
At first, Ponyboy thought that Cherry was stuck-up.
Sodapop is also shown to be hot-headed and impulsive.
Two-Bit is good with words and he is very understanding.
Ponyboy likes to paint, especially Dally when he’s angry.
Darry sometimes went skiing with friends.
Dallas had a job; he worked at the track as a jockey. It was pretty much the only legal thing he did, and he did it well.
Sodapop only smokes when he’s nervous, upset, or he wants to look “tuff”.
Dallas’ iconic Christopher is actually a ring; no tags or chains were mentioned by S.E. Hinton. In the movie, the Christopher is a necklace and the ring has a skull on it.
Two-Bit’s father left him and his family. His mother supports both him and his little sister by working as a barmaid.
Dally “behaved” when Steve’s cousin visited from Kansas.
Matter of opinion or common sense: Dallas’ actions towards Cherry shouldn’t be considered “cute”. Even Ponyboy and Johnny were uncomfortable, and they told him to stop. But, if Cherry was a greaser girl, the boys may or may not have joined Dally and flirted with her.
Sodapop bites his nails.
Darry is harsh with Ponyboy about his grades because Ponyboy skipped a grade, so he should be doing well.
Johnny gets annoyed whenever people mention how he looks 14 years old.
Two-Bit is really good at voice imitations.
Dally took the blame when Two-Bit smashed the school windows.
Johnny doesn’t usually get sassy.
Ponyboy used to help out at the DX.
It was usual that Johnny’s mom ignored him.
Two-Bit cocks one eyebrow up when he is confused, bothered, or about to say something smart.
Sodapop doesn’t really like shoes.
Johnny was never a “coward”.
Dally looked like he was about to be sick when he found Johnny all beat-up by Bob and his friends.
Ponyboy pretty much got “the talk” from a half-drunk Two-Bit.
Cherry vented to Ponyboy.
Sodapop would never turn down the chance of riding a horse; he cried when he lost Mickey Mouse.
Ponyboy really thought that Darry hated him.
Darry has 2 jobs.
Two-Bit has hit Ponyboy before whenever he was mean to Johnny.
Johnny believed that Cherry was staying away to save her reputation; she partly ignored them because her folks would never approve.
Darry and his dad were tight-knit.
Mrs. Curtis kept Dally from getting into too much trouble.
Ponyboy wanted to run away.
Buck and Dally were rodeo partners.
Darry and Ponyboy used to be okay - there wasn’t really that much tension.
Dally didn’t care that Johnny killed someone.
Ponyboy would get embarrassed whenever something suggestive was mentioned.
Ponyboy hates his green eyes.
Dally was concerned when he noticed that Ponyboy didn’t have a sweater; he lent him Buck’s shirt and his own sweater.
Ponyboy once tried to save enough money to buy Mickey Mouse back for Sodapop.
The Brumly Boys call rumbles “bop-action”.
Sodapop can dance.
Johnny had a real hard time at home, but it took a lot to make him cry.
Johnny loves drag races.
Ponyboy also bites his nails.
The Socs hung out at The Way Out and Rusty’s, while the greasers hung out at The Dingo and Jay’s.
Ponyboy used to have a yeller cur dog.
Special credit to tuffhair for this one!: Once, when Dally was in jail, Sylvia started sweet-talking Johnny, so Steve got a hold of her and set her straight. The book states that “if she ever tried any of her tricks with Johnny he’d get a hold of her and personally beat the tar out of her”. Then, he lectured Johnny about girls and how a sneaking little broad like Sylvia would get him into trouble. As a result, Johnny never spoke to girls much, but whether that was because he was scared of Steve or because he was shy, Ponyboy couldn’t tell.
