Heard it myself. Taxiing out of Newark for 22R departure. American is calling for taxi clearance from the south end of the field. At the same time a Hooters Air 737 is just ahead of AA.

American: Ground, American 123 taxi with whatever....
Ground: American do you have the orange 737 just ahead?
American: Affirmative
Ground: American, follow those hooters to the runway.

And believe it or not in a very professional and unflappable manner:

American: Roger, following those hooters wherever they go.
