My favorite reference is the Kain's Lance weapon. I also like the ramuh's Story reference. What's yours?
Kain's Lance(Kain the Dragoon from FF IV)
Ramuh's Story about Josef(Josef from FF II)
Magical Fingertip(Artifact that talks about Gogo from FF V and VI)
Garland, the 4 Elemental Fiends, and the Rat's tail(All from FF I)
Freya's Dragon ability "Reis's Wind"(Reis the Dragoneer from FFT)
The Cloud and Squall line(Cloud FF VII, Squall FF VIII
Garnet's real name(also from FF I)
Doga's artifact and Une's Mirror(FF III)
Others that I haven't mentioned or completely forgot about

Vaan - "Hey, you!"
Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
Fran - "....We could help...."
Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

Zidane saying "I knew a spiky haired guy who carried a sword like this..." in the weapons' shop in Treno. Always cracks me up XD
"Excuse me Miss, do you like pineapple?"
Gah, stop making me pick one!!
Garnet's name, fo real
"Could it be... Garland!?" crazy part right there, Garland comin out of nowhere into the middle of the plot, little monologue on The Invincible, crazy ass music. That's a Classic Right There!!!
Josef's story was great too. Although his daughter does end up figuring it out if i'm not mistaken.
Necron in itself is a reference to past FF's.
Garland and the 4 Elemental Fiends is the best. Although I guess only the old school gamer would get that reference, And Ramah' story about Josef was also a favorite of mine. IX sure is filled with subtle nolstalgic easter eggs from past games.
I can never decide between Garland and the elemental fiends and the general reference of specific job classes that goes back to the original Final Fantasy itself. It was quite nice to see Red Mages wandering around towns since we're never really shown NPCs as having job classes in the previous games.
Not my words Carol, the words of Top Gear magazine.
The reference to Bones on Star Trek is my pick.
Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor, not a miracle worker.
Gotta love Garland.
I mean...he came out of nowhere and knocked them all down.

Garnets real name, I don't really know why I just like that the most. I also like Ramuh's story and the elemental fiends.
The weapon shop was in Lindblum, not Treno.
Though that was my favourite as well. When I first played FFIX I had never played any FF before 7.
