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?

I like this qotwI have a few. A very popular Australian urban legend is if Aborigines break into your house the police tell you to throw out your toothbrushes because they stick the bristle end up their bums to get back at the white fellas.
Not sure about this one but I was told if you press your finger in hard just behind your scrotum - between the scrotum and arse actually, and you press hard on the vessels you can feel that will stop you blowing too early. Well I do it repeatedly when I am driving to prostitutes houses. Seems to work for me.
A school one - Peter Greenham had greenish/grey revolting teeth because he sucked off his parents greyhounds repeatedly.
One I made up for my mother who is one of the worlds biggest homophobes - We saw the shorts for Braveheart at the cinemas and I said of Mel Gibsons character when he had the face paint on "you know he was a raging homo". She was almost lynched by the Scots at work the next day.
