I Love it when Fiction Intrudes into Real Life

In the MASH Season 7 episode "Ain't Love Grand," Klinger mentions he grew up at 1215 Michigan Street.

That got me curious to head to Google Maps. Looks like his neighborhood has seen better days.

But that address puts him only 1 1/2 miles northeast of Toledo's Fifth Third Field, home to the Toledo Mud Hens, which still has as a neighbor Packo's at the Park.

It's kind of fun when real life intrudes into fiction.



There's also a Tony Packo's across the river, not far. And apparently they have a lot of MASH memoribilia.


Anyway, my idiot Facebook friends and I had a fun discussion about it. Read if ya wanna.
