Stupid Tourists
What's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

Not me
But a mate of mine who was on tour managing a rap act from New York. Most of the time they were on tour the band sat at the back of the bus getting blunted, generally bored with touring in Europe. Until they get to Austria at which point all of the members start avidly looking out of the bus windows. Naturally my mate is curious as this is the first thing they have shown any interest in at all since the start of the tour. So he asks one of the guys, why they suddenly started looking out of the windows since they have crossed the border into Austria? Apparently none of them had ever seen a kangaroo before.
