The Beatles were a band of four members. Some people say that there were other members of the Beatles. The Beatles once famously walked along a road named "Abbey Road" and made an album called "Abbey Road" with a picture illustrating them walking along the road. There was also a Volkswagen Beetle that was parked on the road during the shoot. Some people say that it is a reference to a fifth band member and how the Beatles, themselves, had the opinion that there were more than just the four primary band members. Fifty years later, Justin Abdelkader wears number eight. Four times two is eight. "Abbey" is short for "Abdelkader." It must be the case that Abdelkader is the eighth member of the Beatles... either that or Aliens.
