This is a question 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?

Rabbit rabbit rabbit rabbit
I heard that a woman once had a dog and their neighbour's little girl had a rabbit in a hutch outside. One afternoon the woman let her dog out and after a while it came back with next door's rabbit in it's mouth. The poor little bugger was dead and had obviously had a rough time with the dog because it was a bit messy. Anyway, the woman who owned the dog was mortified that her canine chum had killed the rabbit so she took the mangled little thing and cleaned it up as best she could. She crept into her neighbour's garden and put the dead rabbit back in the hutch, laying it down in such a way that it would look like it had died peacefully, and not in the jaws of a hound. The woman then returned to her own home, pleased with herself for being so sensitive towards the feelings of the little girl, who would obviously be upset enough at finding that her beloved bunny had just passed away.

However, later that day her self-satisfaction was shattered by a piercing scream from her neighbour's garden. She ran out to find the little girl standing in front of the hutch, absolutely distraught. "What's wrong?" asked the woman in mock ignorance.
"It's my bunny," sobbed the girl.
"Oh, no!" said the woman sympathetically. "Has it gone to bunny heaven?"
"Yes," answered the girl. "He died this morning and Daddy buried him in the field, but somehow he's come back!"

A bloke told me he'd read it in the paper and that it was true, but as much as I want to believe it, I don't think it is.
