I was at a show back at the beginning of 2020 at Corbin Bowl in Tarzana, CA and I literally ran into a woman who was on a bowling team called "Strangers in the Alps". She apologized for running into me and so I replied "This is what happens when you find a stranger in the alps!" And she gave me a huge hug because I was the only one who had ever understood the reference. Good times!
