Urban Legends
I'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?

Does anyone else know how much truth is in this?
I first heard this about 6 years ago.A friend told me that all the chickens that KFC use aren't really chickens. They're kind of like chickens but they've been genetically bred to have no feathers, no beaks, no legs and no eyes, presumably to increase efficiency and reduce waste. So basically they're just pulsating lumps of chicken meat. And that's why they go by the name of KFC now and not Kentucky Fried Chicken - because they're not allowed to use the word 'chicken' because it's not strictly true and is therefore false advertising.
Anyone else heard anything like this?
EDIT: Sorry, Darth_munki, I didn't see your previous post on a similar subject.
