Well, Boo.
In my story 'Bigfoot in the Bennington Triangle' cousins Betsy and Glen (the narrator) attend a chaotic music festival in Vermont in the early 1970s, where Betsy is abducted by a group of Bigfoot.
Glen sees the abduction and follows the bigfoot deep into the forest and to some long-abandoned forestry cottages, where the bigfoot have chained up his cousin to the post where they use her as a slave.
Staying out of sight, Glen notes the difficulty of rescuing her given the size and strength of the bigfoot, not to mention their enormous teeth, plus there are about 20 of the enormous and ferocious apes in the group. He also notes that the bigfoot have been stealing items from houses in local towns, one of which is a garden statue of the Statue of Liberty,
Finally a narrow opportunity to free Betsy arises - only for Glen to be thwarted when two more bigfoot appear from the vegetation. Glen is so frustrated and angry that he throws himself onto the ground on all fours before the Statue of Liberty, cursing the apes and slamming his fist repeatedly into the ground.
Nobody however picked up on the parody of this scene with one in a famous movie from the late 1960s with Charlton Heston in the lead role...

I mentioned this one in the comment thread, but I had two kinds of references to other stories of mine, MMC writes for literotica as a hobby and FMC complains about an issue in one of "his" stories, actually one of mine. Not mentioning the story. I have two different things come up that reference details in yet another story. I re-used the same divorce lawyer for three different divorces across two stories now, which became the primary bridge.
I was so happy that one of my commenters noticed and liked both.
Same story has multiple easter eggs just for my SO to notice while beta reading; real events from our lives. I have done that in several stories. I actually got a complaint about one (non-sexual) detail being unrealistic, when it happened almost exactly as described to my SO. Truth vs fiction and all that.

Humphrey Grim from my story 'Grumpy Humphrey's Easy Wife' and set in 1960 is the uncle of Henry Grim from my 1989-set story 'Tonya Tiffany & the Twins', although its not so much an Easter Egg as Henry in the later story reflects on attending Humphrey's funeral earlier that year, tying the two stories together.
Both uncle and nephew however don't seem to have much luck in life. Humphrey Grim is married to a much younger wife named Lorraine, and she is a cold-hearted, mean-spirited floosy who has affairs with men all over town, while at his work as a high school teacher his unruly students cause him no end of troubles. Henry's first wife Wendy left him for a much younger man from Hawaii they met while vacationing there, and leaving Henry to raise their unintelligent slacker twin sons Cam and Chris. Henry does re-marry a much younger woman named Tonya who has a daughter Tiffany the same age as his sons, but Tonya is a bimbo and air-head Tiffany even less intelligent than her mother. Among many other things Tiffany believes that dinosaurs were still alive in the early 20th century, and only became extinct some time during the 1920s.

In my story 'Cindy's Close Encounter' which is set in 1959 Cindy and her friends pay a flying visit to New York City at the end, where Cindy notes seeing the Empire State Building, the Chrysler Building and Singer Tower.
Singer Tower was an attractive skyscraper on the NYC skyline for some decades having been constructed in the early 1900s, but was closed and demolished some time during the early 1970s. Fans of architecture and those interested in New York history have lamented its removal for many years since then.
Including this once famous but now lost landmark was a small Easter Egg that helps set the story in the past.
