What's the most rediculous headline you've seen or heard?

"Dry cleaner wins in $54 million suit over pants" made me laugh.
"Taliban tricked me into wearing bomb, boy says" sounds like some kind of poor excuse that a kid came up while he was carrying a bomb.
 
Depends what you mean, the British tabloids here are famous for quick-fire qurky "pun on" headlines.

Saw this one the other day, apparantly an infamous one, not at least for the story.

"Freddie Starr Ate My Hamster!"

"On 13 March 1986 The Sun carried as its main headline: FREDDIE STARR ATE MY HAMSTER - one of the most famous British tabloid newspaper headlines of all time. According to the story created by Clifford, Starr had been staying at the home of Vince McCaffrey (who was co-writing Starr's biography at the time), and his 23-year old girlfriend Lea La Salle in Birchwood, Cheshire when the incident took place. Starr was alleged to have returned home from a performance at a Manchester nightclub in the small hours of the morning and demanded that La Salle make him a sandwich. When she refused, he went into the kitchen and put her pet hamster, Supersonic, between two slices of bread and proceeded to eat it."
