Whenever the mobsters in the Sopranos pay they almost always take a wad of cash out of their pocket and pull off the top 3-4 bills and hand it over. If Tony is paying for a pizza he pulls off 3-4 bills. If he's bribing someone he pulls off 3-4 bills. No matter what the amount is for that particular situation, it's always covered with the top 3-4 bills of the cash wad.
Steve Van Zandt's wife, Maureen, played Silvio Dante's wife Gabriella.
In "Mr. & Mrs. Sacrimoni Request," Johnny Sack's daughter is played by Caitlin Van Zandt. While she shares the surname, she is not related to Steven and Maureen Van Zandt (Silvio and Gabby Dante).
James Gandolfini and Aida Turturro, who play siblings Tony and Janice, played father and daughter in the film Romance & Cigarettes. That film was written and directed by her cousin John.

In the scene where Paulie Gualtieri goes to confront "Feech" La Manna at the bakery concerning the landscaping feud, the clock on the wall doesn't match the time on La Manna's watch or the clock on the wall behind La Manna's desk. The big clock says 11:55 while the other two say either 2:45 or 9:10.
