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?

The student story, againOlembe: I also have a friend-of-a-friend story where a student sacrifces everything to experience the college high-life.
In this case, however, he bought three things: a tent, a sack of potatoes and a crate of vodka.
Of course, knowing that his booze would go walkies if he left it in a tent in the middle of a college campus, he entrusted it all into the care of his friend who was living in Halls, like normal people. Who drunk the lot.
Naturally, I believed this one for years until I worked out that if everybody had a FoaF living in a tent on campus, our universities must resemble a cardboard city.
