This refers to the legend of King Arthur, chronicled most famously by Sir Thomas Malory in his Le Morte d'Arthur. Edit

The line spoofs a long running 1990's series of American Express card commericals (the AmEx card is about the same color as the pass) whose tagline was "Don't leave home without it." Edit
