    Default Sneaky references to FF in real life

    Went to a Chinese restaurant in town today, only the local one, little old-fashioned town.

    Looking through the menu, what do I spot...

    "Kupo Chicken"!

    So there I am eating my moogle meat, gentle piano music on in the background, and a piano rendition of "Melodies of Life" from FF9 comes on

    I guess there's an FF9 fan working in there somewhere XD


    Have you ever / often spotted such random unexpected FF references in real life?

    Best I've had is hearing "Hikari" in an asian restaurant. Of course it was a Hikaru Utada CD playing, so it didn't really surprise me.

    Aww, that kind of makes me with I wasn't a vegetarian!

    A fair percentage of my school's band is obsessed with Final Fantasy. I remember we were mulling around before a concert once, and someone tripped over a tuba case. Someone else immediately burst out in the victory fanfare. It was pretty much the greatest thing ever!
    don't wake me, I plan on sleeping in

    I know how to play Victory Fanfare on my trumpet! It's a Bb Trumpet, a starter, and I can use a note over the highest the trumpet's supposed to go to play it! I can play it normal too, but heyI feel so proud! But barely anybody else in my school likes FF so I'm embarrased to play it.
    Silly jilly ultra nuggets.

    I bought an ostrich and painted him yellow and tortured him 'till he said "kweh". I don't think that counts.
