But the real reason is Mexican mechanics used to place a lime into the neck of the bottle as to ward of flies (flies hate lime) when the bottle was left unattended while working.

Alan Shepard nearly did that during the second manned mission to the Moon, Apollo 14 (1971).

Shepard, wanting to be the first golfer on the Moon. brought three golf balls that he planned to "drive" across the Moon's surface. He strapped the head of a six iron to the bottom of a sampling instrument and told Mission Control to watch. According to NASA lore, the balls flew off into the distance and landed several kilometers away. In the lunar void, a golf ball hit at a speed of 200 km per hour at a 45 degrees angle would travel 1.9 km. But the truth is that Shepard buried the ball on the first swing. His second swing knocked the ball a few feet before it came to a dead stop. Mission Control, providing commentary, said that the shot was a slice. His last shot was more succesful, and the ball disappeared in a graceful arc in the direction of a crater. "Miles and miles and miles," cried the triumphant Shepard. He left a ball for future golfers
