Scelzi is the early leader followed by former Blue Max guy Waterbed Fred, Garlits and Force tied for third with the Gliddens in fourth.
Where are the stories ? How do you vote ?

Right now you vote to seed the field, a few minutes ago Force was in the lead followed by Scelzi, the Gliddens (Bob & Etta) and Don Garlits. Voting continues through Noon on Wednesday.

I voted for ted jones, something tells me he could be the darkhorse here.
Hey Bobbi another idea for this contest is to have it as a video. Sometimes the art of the story is in the telling. Anyway can't wait to read what they come with up with this year

Well, since I couldn't vote for my man, Scotty, I gave it to Scelzi. Bring it on, I can't wait to read 'em!
Gotta go with my man Fred!!
Luckily when my dad worked for Beadle from 1980-1986 I was able to catch quite a few of Fred's tall tales. I'll never forget there was about 20 of us that went to Dave and Busters by the shop in Dallas and Fred got off onto one of his stories which involved D Gantt who was sitting by Fred while he was telling this story. All I know is he had everybody at that table in tears from laughing so damn hard and there sat D basically eating his food and looked up and said "yeah that's how it happened."
