A commenter at Immoral Minority, an Alaskan blog, digs up a newspaper clipping online:
So I visit the link that LoveAndKnishesFromBrooklyn provided, which comes from the "Neighbors" section of the ADN on July 7, 1984, and I read the following: Awards for the various competitions will be provided by the new Miss Wasilla, Katrina Mueller, at 6 p.m. at the Mat-su Resort Pavilion.
We already know that Palin did not win the Miss Congeniality in that contest either, as her Wiki profile claimed. In the fictional Going Rogue, Palin says she did win the Miss Wasilla contest – but doesn't specify what year, although every other source says 1984.
I'm not adding this to the "odd lies" roster until all the facts are totally clear. It's beyond trivial. But it's important to keep track of the insane amount of times Palin has just made stuff up. It helps establish a pattern of deceit that helps us assess her other fantastic claims.
Update: IM has now established that Sarah Palin was Miss Wasilla 1983, and a third runner up for Miss Alaska in 1984.
Bonus pick of Palin wearing some sort of beauty pageant crown after the jump:
