That one's easy - in The Voyage Home, when they go back to 1986, a busload of people saw Spock neck pinch a guy playing loud music, and Kirk said his name right afterward. Word spread about this and it became a popular urban legend, enough so that the Beastie Boys referenced it in a song 12 years later.
