Whatever year the Bulls played the Sonics on the Finals....95....96....something like that, I won the Gatorade contest. You had to get a bottle cap that had the winning team and how many games they won the series in. It was Bulls in like 5 or 6 whatever it was. Got a duffel bag of swag. Pretty cool for a 12 yr old kid.

I won a nice webcam in 2016 as a door prize. Didn’t use it until Covid so it came in handy.

Oh yeah, Funny Bone tickets from the radio station. But those ended up costing a good bit in food and drinks that night.

A cast iron bust of Bear Bryant's head. It's all rusted now, and I use it to hold my bent chest freezer door down. Been wanting to blow it up with some tannerite or melt it down. Need some creative ideas.

Sitting here thinking REALLY hard and I don't think I've ever won a damn thing. Maybe a few bucks at a card game but that MIGHT be it.

Same with me, i buy raffle tickets for stuff just in hopes maybe luck will hook me up. But i just fund what ever the hell it is that they are trying to raise money for. Hell if i was smarter i would just bet that i wouldnt win
