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?

In praise of large classesHaven't started any, but I once made an urban legend come true: I was to turn in a paper during class at University - arrived 10 minutes late and she wouldn't accept it. I argued that she hadn't specified *when* during the class, but she wouldn't back down, so I took a seat. At the end of the class, when she was mobbed by students with questions, I walked up and shoved my paper in the middle of the stack. I actually smiled broadly and waved at her as I left.
I believe I got a B+.
