The most ridiculous I heard ever, was from 2 married couples of regular pioneers, that went on vacation together, by car.
Those unbelievable guys would give leaflets or memorial invitations to the employees in every toll station they encountered. Since the road trip was 8 hours long and full of toll stations, they counted 8 hours in going, and another 8 hours in return!
I remember how startled I was when they shared their story upon their return, that they acutally told it with such enthusiasm, as if they had come up with a brilliant and praiseworthy idea! I didn't have many doubts back then, but I remember feeling very irritated on hearing it. It was one of the times you realize there's something seriously wrong with this whole thing.
