Stupid TouristsWhat'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!"

GettysburgWas at the Gettysburg National Military Park. Tourist, ostensibly from Canada, came up to one of the uniformed Park Rangers and inquired as to whether the battle monuments were there at the time of the battle.
Nice.
Then, another, mere moments later, inquired of the same Park Ranger why it was that Civil War battles were fought in parks.
[the second one might have been an American, I am not sure]
Sic Semper Tyrannis!
