Montana To Hold Lying Contest

Posted by samzenpus on from the lies-damned-lies-and-statistics dept.

Butte Montana's National Folk Festival, will hold a lying contest next month. Each contestant will get a fixed amount of time to tell judges about what happened at the poker game last night, the awesome things they did in college, and how small their butts look in those pants. The winner gets a trophy, and the competition is only open to amateur liars: No lawyers, politicians, patent medicine salesmen, or motivational speakers.

    The whole thing is actually an elaborate hoax which will be used as an entry in the World Lying Championships.

    They aren't holding a lying contest at all. I don't know who told you that but they were wrong. In fact, no one has ever held a lying contest.
