I don't know about anyone else, but I owned my Sprite long before I
became a cop in Orange County, California.  BUT, owning and being
familiar with Sprites proved very beneficial on one traffic stop.

While driving along in the black and white, minding my own business, I
saw a Frogeye blow a stoplight.  It was a white one, just like the one I
had driven to work earlier that night. Hitting the red lights, I pulled
him over, and soon realized he was an odd bird.  Knowing that the
driver's sidepocket was a catch all, I leaned over slightly to take a
look.  Bingo!  What WAS a .357 magnum doing in the sidepocket?  A LOADED
.357?  Oh, just for occasional use in armed robberies, it turned out.
