Is There a Roadgreek On the Jersey Shore Production Team?

[Brian556]

On Jersey Shore Family Vacation, the show is full of sign and highway images. I'm wondering if there is a roadgeek on the production team.

Also, on the original Jersey Shore, there were route markers on the wall in the house (granted the state one was wrong)

RoadGreek.

I cannot answer your question, but you have coined a very amusing term, and I hope sticks it around!

I'm not sure, but one of the identities of NJ is its toll roads so maybe it's just a theme they decided to go with?

[J3ebrules]

Yeah, I'm thinking it's an identity thing. One year, my work team at a PA based company decided to go Jersey themed for Halloween and had us all make sign costumes for the NJ Turnpike and Garden State Parkway. I was the only Jersey person on the team, so it was amusing that this was what a bunch of Pennsylvanians landed on. Not beachwear/shore theme. Not factory/smog theme. And not pizza/Taylor ham theme. Exit signs.

So yeah, I'd say that other states think we really identify hard with our highway signs. I mean, we do tell each other where we live based on what exit we are off of. Some of us, anyway.

Uh huh, that must be it.

It must be the fact that the show's production company uses an I-495 shield as its logo. And get this, you won't believe who owns the company:
