Last January The Storytelling Arts Center of the Southeast declared Wallace Shealy the 2010 Southeast Bold-Faced Liar Champion. In an interview after the competition and with a twinkle in his eye Shealy said, “of course I embellished the truth slightly.” The Mountain Xpress said in their opinion “Shealy exaggerates more than slightly.” The Tribune revealed that this upstanding local citizen had been caught lying. Recently Shealy announced he would tell his last lie at an appearance at the Reuter Center on November 12th at 11:30am opening the field to other talented liars who have not yet reached his stature. It doesn’t matter if he is recalling a tale from his childhood, telling a story based on the Good Book or spinning a yarn you will be delighted listening to him stretch the truth all out of proportion.
