Trevor's History Reel - a DC tour guide actually told a group on a tour
That a cow kicked over a lantern causing the White House fire in 1814. That's not even really true for the Chicago Fire but it's not even a myth about the White House fire. So who are these guides and why don't they know the history? Are they volunteering or hired?
