"I understood that reference!" Is a joke from The Avengers; since Captain America has been on ice for 70 years he doesn't get most pop culture, history, etc. references that are commonplace today.

Somebody makes a reference (Wizard of Oz, maybe?) that is old enough that he does understand it, so he says that line with pride.
