Church is a great place to hear UL's. I've probably heard a pile of them from the preacher come Sunday, and always with the rejoinder, "And this is a true story!" Two of my personal favorites are Boxcar Willie (http://www.snopes.com/horrors/gruesome/freezer.htm) and The Green Snake Saga (http://www.snopes.com/critters/farce/hindlick.htm).
Anybody else hear a good sermon UL lately?

The last really good urban legend/internet rumor thing that I got was the photograph mock up of a guy waving on top of the world trade centers with an american airlines jet right behind him. It was obviously a fake, and the creator came forward later to debunk it, but it was still pretty good.

snopes2.com is a favorite site of mine, i used to visit it all the time between classes.
