What's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

I was in a restaurant in London called the Won Kei happily eating my meal when two Americans walked in. Now this restraint attempts to get you in and out as quickly as possible so as soon as the Americans sit down they are promptly given a menu. The Americans look up and down the menu and finally ask the Chinese waiter “what would you recommend?” to which the Chinese waiter promptly replies “We no recommend, you choose or you fuck off!” I nearly pissed myself!
