this reminds me, i have friend who did the exact same thing as u a while back..she was in a hurry and didnt look at the pump and quickly grabbed the nozzle...unfortunately for her, it wasnt 87 octane....it was Diesel #2, filled a full tank, right into the petrol engine...tow truck...she never made it to her appt..
