A Strange Encore to the Destin Deep-Water Shark Tournament - Taking a Lie-Detector Test to Prove You’ve Won

shark_tournament2.jpgCherie Mills took top honors in the Lady Angler category in the 2006 Destin Deep-Water Shark tournament, but it took more than landing a 480lb Tiger Shark to do it.

A challenge by second place finisher Virginia Lipscomb over allowable assistance by Mills’ crew invoked a rather interesting clause in the tournament rules - resolution via polygraph.


The polygraph was duly administered this week and Cherie’s victory confirmed. You can read more about the initial challenge online here and about her successful polygraph test here.
