Stupid Tourists
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!"

In defence of Americans
We have stupid tourists too. I sat with my head in my hands listening to some guy explaining the format of "Who wants to be a millionaire to a New Yorker who was patiently and without success trying to say tha they had it in the states too.
The same bloke then went on to state how stupid skyscrapers were, when there was so much room in America to build more buildings instead.
