Everyone has a story to tell, and we thought it would be cool to see what they were.

We go to the farmer's market and ask what everyone's go-to party story is. "I was totally fine. I had a broken neck but I wasn't paralyzed or anything."
Maya Konz finds out that her dad grew up in Nigeria, and that his brother once told a very strange lie involving a leopard and a pool of blood.
Jad Vianu's uncle went to the Oscars, lost to Al Gore, and made a statement.
