    Well, this is from the ancient history of coin-op arcade games (and hence
OT), but there once was a rumor that, in the original Battlezone game, that
if you kept driving your tank in the same direction long enough (avoiding
enemy tanks and buzz bombs all the while), that you would eventually
REACH said hills, and find yourself on the outskirts of the enemy tank
factory...
    A friend of mine in college used to play this for hours (trading off every
100 points until we ran up some wild scores), and we never found that
mythical tank factory...
