The fat one isn't siddhartha. His name is Budai. To answer your initial question, I think people think Buddha's fat because they are misinformed and don't care to become informed. Many of them also believe that Buddhists pray to Buddha or that he is a god. None of this is true(There are exceptions to this in some sects but generally the belief is that the enlightened(Buddhas) have no interest in or power over the material world.).

I bet it's not and that's why he did that.

If he just likes the way it looks, does his life story really matter..?  :headbang:
