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?

the most repeated urban legend i've heard...it's about an about-to-get-married couple that had booked a reception at a posh place for their wedding weekend. and the posh place gets in touch, saying some people really want that weekend, and will buy them out of the weekend +£5k.
the original couple say no as it's their wedding and they've made all the plans. this haggling increases up to the point the mystery couple offer to pay off the original couple's mortgage - an offer they accept.
the cheque comes through for the mortgage, and it's signed by......
david beckham.
BULLSHIT - i can't be the only person to have been exposed to this story on multiple occasions.
