Pardon Me, Do You Have any Grey Poupon?
This article caught my eye yesterday. I think I'll have to start a label for pop culture since I seem to be so into it. And this happened in Salt Lake City, of all places! If you're not sure what I'm referring to, here's the commercial from the 1990s. What would Wayne & Garth think?

'Grey Poupon' antic leads to pointed gun
Mimicking a humorous 1990s commercial, three in car get an unexpected response from a fellow driver
The Salt Lake Tribune, 07/23/2008
A Sandy man took offense to a motorist, who, after getting him to roll down his window, asked, "Excuse me, sir, do you have any Grey Poupon?" After hearing the request for Dijon mustard, the 22-year-old driver pulled a black handgun from his glove compartment, cocked the weapon and pointed it at the three people in the other car. "Here's your Grey Poupon, roll your [expletive] windows up," he responded. The confrontation happened June 18 at the intersection of 900 East and Winchester Street (6500 South) in Murray, court documents state. One of the three people in the car wrote down the sport utility vehicle's license plate number. Murray police later located the man, who admitted he pulled out the gun, racked the slide and threaten the other car. He was charged Tuesday with aggravated assault, a third-degree felony.
