Lanyards, strings used for holding name cards, often has the shape of a Mobius band.
A picture of lanyard: Many more can be found on Google Image.
The purpose of using this shape is probably to help the card stay flat on the chest.
This is certainly a real world application of the Mobius band. It is a bit amusing to see so many people wearing an unorientable, one-sided surface! Showing a lanyard and pointed out its shape can be a convenient way to introduce the Mobius band to people.
