	* This episode ~~was likely inspired by~~ the real life ~~Vending Machine Killer, an unidentified serial killer or killers in Japan who tampered with drinks from vending machines. Around the time of the initial~~ murders, the culprit was targeting vending machines that had no CCTV cameras and tampered with a specific type of energy drink, and the poison used was a pesticide that is lethal in humans and currently has no know treatment or antidote for, and the anime similarly identifies the poison as being a phosphoric acid compound typically used in pesticides. The company in the episode is similarly running a contest, which Conan realizes is a clue to identifying the culprit, and the energy drink targeted in real life was running a "Buy 1 get 1 free" promotion at the time, and since many people were only wanting 1 drink, they would leave the extra bottles in the pickup slot at the vending machine or next to the machine. Given that this was the early to mid 80's, and that compared to western countries like the United States or Canada, Japan has a low crime rate and typically people there wouldn't be as suspicious of a free full bottle by a vending machine, this likely is why there were ~~so many victims. Kogoro even finds an extra bottle in the pickup slot but is cautioned against drinking it~~ by ~~Ran and Conan.~~		* This episode shares similarities to the real-life [[wikipedia:Paraquat murders\|Paraquat murders]], which were carried out by tampering certain beverages and poisoning them. However, the Paraquat murders were a type of indiscriminate murder.
