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?

re: if your not a manc your a wankI heard a similar one:
A friend of a friend was shopping in oxford street, when an elderly arab guy in front of him drops his wallet. This friend of a friend - being a kind sort of chap - picks the wallet up and runs after the old guy to return it.
The arab guy was extremely thankful, and asked this friend of a friend if he could be of any assistance - to which this friend of a friend politely declined.
The elderly arab guy makes to walk off, but the turns round and says "You've been so kind to me, let me just give you a piece of advice - avoid birmingham."
This friend of a friend is a bit shook up by this, and replies "why? is there going to be a bomb?"
The arab guy says "no, its a shithole!"
edit: Doh! Legless beat me to it.
