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?

Nothing like a good urban legend;legends explained the world before humans invented religion and then they filled in the gaps afterward.
I wish I could remember where I read it,but I have heard that the fellows in Greek myths reputed to be giants and all the winged horses and whatnot were thought to be so because fossil bones of dinosaurs and extinct land mammals had been discovered and needed explaination.
