Good qualification. In Canada, hockey edges out
stoning sinners as the favorite sport.

According to COB, icehockey is something like 44th on
the list of most popular sports...

During particularly important hockey games in Canada, the water 
pressure in major cities goes down between periods because everyone 
is rushing to the bathrooms in their homes.

Actually there could be something to it. Many cities that have 
winning sports teams find that crime during game time drops dramatically. Seems 
the criminals like sports as well and take a break or people wait to report 
crimes until after the game is over or the police wait to take the report when 
the game is over. It could be that when the Beatles were on Ed Sullivan that 
fewer crimes were reported immediately while people watched the show regardless 
of the time zones they were in. I still like the story told to Maharishi though, 
it's sweet, maybe BS but still sweet.

Yup. Pure myth. I was in college on the East coast,
and I remember everybody crowding into a lobby of
one of the girls' dorms to watch it, because they
had the biggest TV. When we came out, we found that
someone had stolen most of the many bicycles that
had been left outside by the students.

I find it interesting that of the three sources that cited a date, 2 
got the year wrong! ('63 and '65...it was '64)

So its a "true" legend and not something MMY plucked out of the air. 
It's a nice story, regardless of the validity of it, and nice of MMY 
to use it to help bring closure to the schism with the Beatles.

Well, I've never heard it before, but that doesn't mean the claim 
isn't part of Beatles lore. I could also be something that MMY heard 
from a truely crazed Beatles fan or something that MMY made up simply 
to be nice.

Was the Ed Sullivan Show in '64 shown at different times?  Or was it 
like World Series ball games and was shown live in all time zones?
