It's not exactly the same, but I won my TV at my all-night graduation party. I'm very happy with it.

Writing some lame-ass song over snail mail for a TV contest when I was 8 scored me a CD for free.

Coloring some lame-ass thing got me seventh in some county-wide thing.

Spelling in some lame-ass thing when I was in fourth got me fourth in regionals.

Taking some lame-ass test about Chemistry got me upwards of regionals in WYSE.

Taking the same WYSE thing in Computer Science landed me first in regionals, seventh in state.

So I guess, yea.

I won a Wii at a raffle. I also won a Gen 1 512 Mb Ipod Shuffle and a Luigi doll.

(I won some tickets to see Bono in concert, but I wasn't around for it apparently so they gave them to someone else... I would have sold them anyway... )

Filling out over 500 ballots for a laptop contest was worth it . Unfortuneately it's a bit outdated now although it will still be fine to use at university in two years for basic things like word files and programming .

I didn't win the actual show, but I managed to beat tons of other children as a kid and get on Dick Clark's Battle of the Child Geniuses 2 as a second alternate.

Had two children been destroyed by lightning, I'd have been on TV.

Darn.

I've never won anything much. Usually I can't be bothered, or I forget, to enter contests/sweepstakes.


Congrats on the tickets, anyhow.

Tickets to a Dave Koz concert back in 2007. Great night.

Sadly, WJJZ (the radio station) changed to some weird crap and their name changed I think. :|

Ha, I'm going to Warped Tour tomorrow. I really only know like 4 of the bands but uh, it was cheap and I'm sure it'll be fun.

As for winning stuff...never really got lucky with contests, not that I ever really bothered under the assumption the odds weren't going to be in my favor anyway. I did win a few trophies for some skit thing back in middle school, I guess. And one or two music awards for basically not sucking. Not exactly my proudest achievement considering who my competition was at the time (a large girl who couldn't play the french horn to save her soul and another drummer on an ego trip), but I'll take it ;x I won a large stuffed snake for successful completion of a carnival game once. Actually, I think I didn't even do it right, but they gave me it anyway.

Oh and I win at life, that has to count for something.

I won a microwave, a toaster oven, and a kite in the same raffle. I didn't need/want any of it.

Well, not really... you know, a few things here and there but nothing major. Certainly not at work (where the guy who won a PS3 in the 2007 Christmas raffle didn't even HAVE A TV to use it with), however...

I *did* win a little contest on GameFAQs 8 years ago.

I won a brand new PS2 the day they came out from a liquidation store... but the internal fan was broken and couldn't play for more than a half-hour before it died from overheating. I ended up fixing the fan but it got the dreaded "Disc Read Error" shortly afterward.
