Gallop Poll 

When Genuine Risk got bumped and otherwise illegally/unethically prevented from winning the Preakness and Belmont races, a Gallop Poll that was conducted afterwards showed strong support for the pretty little mare, and widespread outrage about the shameful ways she had been treated during those two races.

Duncan Donuts 

A medieval-Europe chain of fast-food joints that were founded by one of King Arthur's choicest knights.
Duncan Donuts mostly catered to fellow gladiators, but naturally, the "ladies' man" knights who ran the pubs were always only too happy to chivalrously serve hot coffee to damsels in distress, as well, whenever they made their shivering entrance on a chilly winter morning.

A close "cousin breed" to the well-known central-western European species of dog, this choice of canine is favored by movie-stars for its loyalty and friendly disposition.
As a child, I heard a radio-ad narrated by someone calling himself "Jean Shepherd"... I remember wondering at the time how a dog could talk.
