Dixie Highway Super Bowl

In the next two weeks prior to Super Bowl "41" (sorry, too tired to figure out how many Xs, Vs, and Is are in 41) between Indianapolis and Chicago, you just might hear that it's the "I-65 Super Bowl". Well, 65 is the common route for most people traveling between Chicago and Indianapolis, BUT, 65 ends in northern Indiana and doesn't even hit the suburbs of Chicago. Technically, there's not even a US highway that connects the two cities. But, this game should be called the "Dixie HIghway Super Bowl" since the west alignment of the DH did go from Chicago to Indy. So when you hear someone mention this I-65 Super Bowl, there's your ammo to set them straight! :D
