Urban LegendsI'm ashamed to admit it, but I fell for the "Bob Holness played the saxophone on Gerry Rafferty's Baker Street" story some years back. It just seemed so right. I still want it to be true.
What have you fallen for, or even better, what legends have you started?

Daddy Long LegsI convinced a bloke I worked with years ago that Daddy long legs (crane flies) would be deadly due to the venom they carry but they cant open their jaws wide enough to break human skin.
I have told various people this and posted it online, a few months ago my missus had a spammy email with "things you never knew" one of them was the daddy long legs are poisonous "fact" I had made up.
there is even a web page somewhere debunking it.
Its wrong I feel proud about it isnt it?
