We take you to Zimbabwe for this legend. A bus full of 20 mental patients
is making its way from the capitol city to an institution in one of the
  surrounding towns. Unfortunately, the bus driver was not a very reliable
fellow.

How was he unreliable, you ask? Well, for starters, the first chance he got
he pulled into a bar. He went in for a quick nip, and when he stumbled out 2
hours later, all the mental patients were gone. Poof. So, what does our
soused idiot of a driver do? Does he call the authorities? Ha...

He drove to a real bus stop and offered free rides to everyone waiting. He
then drove them to the institution. After telling the staff that these
patients "got upset very easily and should be restrained," he took off!

These poor dupes spent three days tied up, being prodded and examined by
doctors! Finally, reports of the true wandering loonies started pouring in,
and the poor prisoners were released. Now, we've heard of being taken for a
ride, but this takes the cake!
