Trivia
In contrast to the movie, in the real game of tag there are 10 friends participating, the game is played each February, and they don't tag each other at work. However, the tag at a father's funeral did happen, and in both the game has been an unconventional way of maintaining friendships.

Goofs
At the end of the movie, the group runs out of the hospital room playing tag. Earlier in the room you could see Jeremy Renner's character's wife was standing in the doorway, but in the shot immediately after you don't see her in the hallway.

But before the men run out of the hospital room, Jerry's wife is seen to step to the side of the doorway inside the room so she would not be visible in the next shot from the hallway as the men come out.

Quotes
Hoagie: Synchronize your watches.
Callahan: I don't know how to do that.
Randy: I don't have a watch.
Sable: Time is a construct.

Crazy credits
Right before the credits, videos of the real men who inspired the film are shown playing the game.

You don't stop playing because you grow old.

Tag is such a fun movie. The lengths these guys go to for their game is honestly inspiring, as is any instance where people put way too much effort into something so silly (see "Actual Cannibal Shia LaBeouf"). Ed Helms has made a career out of having fun, and seeing him in this movie with Jon Hamm and Jeremy Renner is just part of that magic that brings out the kid in all of us. You don't stop playing because you grow old; you grow old because you stop playing.
