Rain Man - Easter Eggs & Hidden Details
Easter Eggs
Cruise's Birthday on the Windshield
The numbers on the windshield of the red sports car at the beginning of the film are '3762'. Tom Cruise's birthday is July 3, 1962 (3/7/62).
Vernon Manor Hotel Address
Raymond repeatedly mentions buying his underwear at K-Mart at '400 Oak Street.' This is the actual address of the Vernon Manor Hotel in Cincinnati, where the cast and crew stayed during filming.
97X Bam! Sticker
Raymond repeats the radio tagline '97X, Bam! The future of Rock and Roll.' This is a real radio station (WOXY) in Oxford, Ohio, and the tagline is a genuine local reference.
