The band has cited a variety of reasons for ultimately choosing 182, with some of the more common explanations being the number of times Tony Montana utters the word "fuck" in Scarface, references to the 1985 Timothy Hutton film, Turk 182!, the band's ideal weight, the number of half the days in a year and the number of miles Hoppus had to drive to visit his girlfriend. Mark Hoppus confirmed in an interview that he had been overweight and went to see a doctor who told him that his ideal weigh would be "182" and that is where the 182 comes from.
