Route 66 - Joliet Prison

While on a Route 66 Road Trip, Boofle stopped by to see Statesville Correctional Facility, more commonly known as Joliet Prison. This is the prison featured in the movie The Blues Brothers as the prison from which Jake Blues is released at the beginning of the movie.

This was as close as Boofle wanted to get 
to the prison!
