Increasingly esoteric factoids about the Garden State, inspired by a Maryland one I saw yesterday. Please ask questions, some of them are a little weird, lol, and I'd like to make a second draft that's more clear and understandable

(Already just realized I forgot bagels)

Bugs Bunny has relatives in Perth Amboy should be included. Also the 1923 KKK riot where they got their asses kicked in Perth Amboy

Nice. Ongs hat and Emilio Carrenza would be nice additions.

I assume it's a joke because only Orange, East Orange, West Orange, and South Orange exist.

I feel like Bruce should really be at the top level right? It’s pretty rare someone knows who he is without also knowing he’s from NJ.

I'd bump the spy house down a few levels, but I am a fan of the Clerks sequels being down the rabbit hole. Overall Great Effort. A+

You forgot to add to catch a predator show. It had a few episodes there.

Minor correction: Matawan Man-eater should only have one T in town name. Looks great though.

My fiancé is from Jersey so I jokingly tested him after his bold claim to know everything on this iceberg. He got everything right so good job!

My personal favorite is that pork roll is higher than Taylor Ham

For the bottom I'd like to add the weird watershed boarders of Central Jersey that all converge in Millstone.
