I'm a winner

MrMagpie · 25-06-2008, 03:47 PM

I won tickets to see Jose Gonzalez tomorrow.

What is the biggest thing you have ever won?

The only other contest I think I won was an art one when I was in elementary. I coloured an easter egg and got to walk around with the Easter Bunny at the mall. What a rush.

Oh that's cool....congratulations Briggins,..

I don't think I have ever really won anything to remember..

MrMagpie · 25-06-2008, 04:13 PM

Anything at all? As a kid?

Any simple things like a bag of chips, or a bottle of pop?

I won the signed Coldplay singles box set.

Once won $263 at the horse races. First time there, first race and never went back.

Won the Plumber Award at University for have the highest GPA in my class...well I guess that's not so much a won as an earned, but there was a cash prize so....it's kinda like winning.

Won tickets to see Van Halen from some radio station 10 zillion years ago.

Hoping to win those Today Show VIP tickets today. hinty hint Ian

yes probably something like that....but I can*t remember...so nothing important..

@ Angie
^ You've got quite the successful track record.

That one was for mark.

But I like how after you won on the horse races you never went back. Thats the way to go, always a champion.
Its like in sports if you make an amazing shot or do something amazing you should just stop, that way everybody thinks you're the best.

I designed a logo for a consortium of chemical companies in the Southeast a few years ago and won an iPod video. Originally the prize was just an iPod nano but I sort of persuaded them to give me a nicer prize, lol.

mc_squared · 25-06-2008, 04:41 PM

I've been winning quite a few tennis matches recently.

I'm in hot form!

When I went to Vegas to visit my friend, he kept wanting me to gamble, but I don't really see the point of pissing my money away. After him nagging me about it I finally said OK and played some slot machine thing and won $170 on like my second quarter. Cashed out and quit.

MrMagpie · 25-06-2008, 05:11 PM

Man you're good!

Lore · 25-06-2008, 05:14 PM
