As of this episode, probably the highest body count as a result of a fight between Peter and The Giant Chicken.
The title is based on the book "Blind Ambition" by John Dean on his involvement with the Watergate affair.
In the scene where the Griffins are in the car and Peter tells them he is setting a world record, he points out two guys morbidly obese guys riding motorbikes nearby. This is a reference to real life pro wrestlers, Billy and Benny McCrary, known professionally as "The McGuire Twins", who legitimately hold the Guinness World Record for heaviest twins, weighing in at 723 and 745 pounds respectively, or 1,468 pounds combined.
During the chicken fight, the very end of it is taken from Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Ark. During the plane scene, the chicken is "killed" the same way as the shirtless man while Peter portrays Jones.
When the Griffins are in the car and Peter announces his goal of eating nickles, the same 2 houses are passed many times, and are exactly the same on both sides of the street.
