Things You Believed as a Kid

Recommended Posts

My Dad once told me that sheep's legs were shorter on one side of their body than the other so that they could stand on hills without falling over. Something I believed until I was about 13-14 when I piped up at school with this gem of knowledge and had everyone rip the piss.

I once told my mate that but it was so the Haggis could stay upright when they ran round the hills. He fell for it as well, and that you had to harpoon kebabs because they were like chickens and carried on running after they were dead. If they were harpooned you could then pull them out their burrows once they had stopped.

When I was younger I had an irrational fear that if I was on the top deck of the bus I would get left behind on the stairs when it came to get off.

Even now I make sure I'm ready behind the driver a few hundred metres before the stop with my finger on the bell.

Russell Hoult and his famous "hotdog kid" moment.

For years i thought he was just a person in the crowd that they decided could play. I had no concept of youth team or anything! Was a full kit willy puller from the age of 7 until about 10 hoping i'd get the call if needed!

lol can't believe someone else did that!

Make that 3 :D

First time I went to a Leicester match I asked "Why isn't there a commentator?"

On a similar note, but not me and not a child. My mum didn't go to a live football match until she was in her 40's and didn't know that after each goal the conceding team kicked off again, because that was never shown on TV!
