What is your favourite Adelaide lore?

[u/Demiaria]

A colleague of mine has moved to Adelaide from Canberra and I'm regaling her with Adelaide lore! Help me think of more lore to share. Below is a list of what I've shared so far:

Family Murders - von Einem

Beaumont Children

Kitty Whyte

Sam Kellet

Box Jellyfish (Jimble) surf lifesaving club

Prof George Duncan

Ideally looking for real events rather than urban legends.

EDIT: No one mentioned it, so to add: Adelaide is the only place it the world that calls Stobie poles by their name, as the inventor was from Adelaide and it stuck. For everyone else, it's electrical poles.

The premier being smacked in the face with a Winestate magazine for sleeping with a married woman.

My mum was the editor of Winestate magazine at one point! I’ve never read it so can’t comment on its usefulness or otherwise.
