Don't know about a chariot as such, but one of the many Urban Myths that always amused me about the Vatican, is the one where the Pope has to sit, underwearless, on a special chair with a hole in it so someone below can ensure he is in fact not a she.
I suppose this is so they can avoid another Pope Joan, the only female to hold the title and who they only found out about when she gave birth in an alley. And I believe she is supposed to be a myth as well.[?]
