As has been said, the only person who's ever told more made-up stories and tall tales than mickey, is Scotty of Scotty's Castle in Death Valley. It's an interesting visit. While there your tour guide explains that, because Scotty had nothing else going on in his otherwise lonely life, he came up with whopper after whopper for the guests. Everyone paid him lip service by asking questions and laughing often. But when they left, they just shook their heads, and any laughter was AT Scotty.
Mickey could easily have taken Scotty's place.
