Allusions and References

Route 66 is used as a reference to get from one place to the other and is mentioned as running from New York to Los Angeles. US Highway 66, known as Route 66, ran from Chicago to Los Angeles (Santa Monica, actually). Seeing as the show is based in Chicago, one would think they'd know that.
