311thrice Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 What contests have you won? I have horrible luck with contests, but a few years back I won a couple of tickets to Warped Tour. And I won a Manu Chao vinyl from absolutepunk about a year ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I won a bike when I was 8 or 9, and it got stolen like a week later. I think that is the only thing I have ever won. My dad on the the hand, has won tons of money contests, TVs, and such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtmanner Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I won tickets to Junior Prom. Lame I won a test press for Interpretaciones Del Oso. Not lame. Those are the only things I've ever won, but I'm ok with that. It's weird how some people win tons of crap. My mom had a good friend who won good amounts of money like 5 or 6 times and a whole ton of other contests as well. Weird stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcm1610 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I won two tickets to a Sabres game I already had tickets to when I was 9 or so. I was supposed to go with my dad and sit in the upper golds at roughly center ice, but because I won those tickets, I was somehow convinced that I had to sit in the other pair's tickets. I watched the game from the corner of the ... oranges? blues? Whatever the top section was, while my older brother and cousin got to sit in the good seats. Other than that, I've never, ever won anything that is random. And it's not for lack of trying. And this is why I don't play the lottery. I just don't win.

derbsauce Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 The only thing I've ever won is a giant canister filled with HUGE gumballs. It was the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
go Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 As weird as it sounds, i usually only enter contest i actually think i can win, e.g. where not many people will take part. I only won a couple of things, but they were quite nice: - all expenses paid snowboard trip - conference tickets to typo berlin last year (worth over 600 euro) - some small stuff like books, cds or concert tickets. i won tickets for a festival i was not really into, sold the tickets and could therefore attend about 4 punk/hc shows for the price, hooray.

anchorsup Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 When I was 12 I won a backpack from the camp I went to. Other than that I don't think anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
controlthebleeding Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I've never won any kind of raffle. I've never even won $2 on a lottery ticket. I don't have bad luck. I just don't have good luck either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muskawo Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I used to win a lot of drawing competitions when I was younger. I dont win stuff very often, last thing I won was 2 tickets to see king of kong at a advanced preview. Oh, I won prizes for sending stuff into magazines back in the day, too. Like poetry and letters of the month and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
