The Biggest Lie Contest Reward

  • Two boys were arguing in class one day when the teacher walked into the classroom.

    The teacher asked them, "Why are you arguing?"

    One of the boys replied, "We found a ten dollar bill and decided to give it to whoever tells the biggest lie."

    "You should be ashamed of yourselves," said the teacher. "When I was your age I didn't even know what a lie was."

    The boys gave the ten dollars to the teacher.

  • Explanation

  • The humor in this joke comes from the teacher's unwitting admission. She claims to have been so innocent as a child that she didn't know what a lie was, which is, of course, a lie itself, making her the winner of the 'biggest lie' contest. The boys realize this and give her the money.
