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 a football tournament
Lots of Americans come over and play, quite funny watching them try and say some of the Welsh names, and literally describing one of their goals as -
"An upshot into the upper right 90"
Translated -
"A shot which was rising into the top right corner.."
