Mad Max re-enactment gone wrong
A convoy of costumed fans on their way to a Mad Max marathon were arrested for re-enacting the tanker chase scene from Road Warrior. It seems passing motorists genuinely believed the tanker was under siege by a violent militia and called the police. I'm trying to decide if this is more or less ridiculous than people believing Martians were invading the US thanks to the War of the Worlds radio broadcast.
