2 common ones i have heard:

1) The Mansion by itself on the top of Brighton Road overlooking Marino is owned by the person who owns Smokemart Franchises.
2) Johhny Haysman used to be a nightclub bouncer and was king hit thus the reason he is a little bit odd.

[silicone skyline]

I heard Haysman was completely sane, raised by some snobby rich step-parents and acts the way he does to spite them.

[overloaded]

If you want to see an interesting building in Adelaide go on the tour of the Freemasons Grand Lodge Hall on North Terrace - tour is on each Thursday - fascinating architecture!

Apparently the area where they keep the goats is worth seeing

Haven't heard anything about upbringing, but I'd heard Johnny was not only sane, but very intelligent.

[silicone skyline]

He's got the world fooled.

I HEARD fc ISNT REALLY A NAZI EITHER... SHE JUST ACTS LIKE ONE NON STOP

I was told once that there is a pipeline running underground from Birkenhead to Pt Stanvac, to carry oil from the refinery to the storage facility.

THis may or may not be correct. His sister (step/half or via adoption i guess?) is a physio on South Terrace and pretty embarassed by his antics. So you could be right CP.

And there is a connection to the Port CEO - cousin or something like that.

What about the Port Wakefield Road Ghost that supposedly (im not a believer) hitchhikes up and down gets in the car then mysteriously disappears wtf! i even heard that there is a bloke who offers to take people on tours to spot the Ghost (guess you just drive up and down port wakefield road...

I bet he has a colleague who daubs himself in white paint and then stands by the highway with his thumb extended just as the tour bus goes past

i've also heard the mansion on Sellicks Hill is owned by the same bloke, and he bought it off Kylie Minogue.

[therisingblues]

That mansion diagonally across from Light's Vision (Carcleux?) is haunted.

The girl that looks as though she's been in a traffic accident near Cross Road and asks to be taken home to a specific address, when you arrive there she's disappeared. Then when you knock on the door of the address the person who answers is able to describe the girl in detail and then announces that it is their daughter who died ON THIS DAY "x" no. of years ago, and always asks to be taken home on the anniversay of the crash that killed her.

Central supporters throwing dead magpies with sticks rammed up their clackers at the Port players as they ran out the race. (This one is a huge exaggeration of an actual event, but this is the Adelaide Urban Myths thread so I think it qualifies)

Most of the severely "eccentric" in the community actually have a mild form of Schizophrenia that prompts them to respond oddly to their environment.
They are often then regarded as highly intelligent, and/or highly artistic, and sometimes they are.
It is not uncommon for this oddity to then be blamed on innocent parents or adoptive parents.
