Urbn Myth Busters

This is of course just for fun. Please feel free to contribute.

Urban myths – any favourites? Any you can verify as actual “true stories”?

I’m always amused when I hear a familiar story (possible urban myth) with some slight local twist. There’s one story I’ve heard a number of times. No one ever seems to know the person involved but all are sure that it did happen.

It goes something like this:
An unfortunate young woman at a Fēile or Trip to Tipp gig was using the portaloo, as you do, when it was knocked over by some practical jokers hiding behind it. Supposedly it was well into the evening when it happened and this particular loo had collected quite a bit of waste.

To make matters worse the loo fell forward, landing on its door, which made a quick escape impossible. While fumbling around in the dark looking for an exit with pants around her ankles, literally soaked head to toe in human effluence, one must wonder what was going through the poor girl’s mind.

When she was eventually helped out, onlookers stood staring, pointing and laughing and even her friends ran away from her, afraid to even touch her. She was eventually hosed down by gig stewards before being brought to hospital for some serious shots!

There’s another one that involved a surprise party for a girl’s 21st birthday. On her return from work, her friends and family were hiding in her living room. However, when the young woman entered the house she went straight into the kitchen, produced some dog food, called in the dog and eh ... mmm ... lets just say, when everyone burst in shouting “surprise”, they got an awful shock!

If you are the person in either of these stories please let us know

There was a fox eating chickens up around our way a few years ago and one auld farmer decided to leave the kitchen window open at night so that when the fox arrived he could get a clear shot at him with the shotgun.

One night his brother came home from the ballroom of romance and finding it a bit chilly in the kitchen decided to close the kitchen window.

Later that night the other brother hears the fox, grabs the shotgun and runs to the kitchen and shoots.

I don't believe it. You were actually providing a service to the public.

Two auld farmer brothers get a new house with the electric meter in a little box on the side gable of the house.
One day one of the auld farmers is trying to kick of his wellingtons and is leaning his hand against the meter box.
The brother thinking his brother is getting an electric shock knocks him over with a belt of the shovel.
