You ever win anything in a drawing?

[PICK3]

I won a bicycle in a movie theatre when I was about 10 yrs. old.

Won $5k in a lottery about 8 years ago.

That's about it.

A cabbage patch doll back when they were a hot Christmas item...it was nice to get my stepdaughter what she wanted that year without hounding the stores about when the next shipment was coming in.

One week after I started at my new job that I moved across the country for, only to discover that my boss was quitting 2 days later, they held an "employee appreciation" day and I got a 27" flat screen Sharp TV in a drawing. Not too shabby. The sad part was that I had to make some new friends quick w/ anyone w/ a truck so I could bring the damn thing home. It didn't fit in my car. Not that I could lift it myself anyway...

Lucky #4 when I was in the fifth grade. Out of the whole fifth grade my number was drawn and I won a thingamajig. That thing where you line up the letters and punch, spelling out what you want....... OH a labeler.

Paid $20 for a chance at a new Harley last month at a bike show, but of course I didn't win.

I wanted that more than anything since the days I was fumbling around in the backseat of my parents Buick in high school.

Dudes and dudettes, you want to know the WORST fucking luck of winning anything? Check this shit out.

Years ago, He-Man was the rage. (this was before the lame cartoon). Castle Greyskull was practically nonexistent on store shelves. God how I wanted this playset. I only had Skeletor and Merman (remember him?). And doing gay love scenes with one man with purple skin and the other with green just didn't cut it. Those colors clash you know.

So Honeycomb cereal had a contest of getting a prize in their bags and winning the ENTIRE FUCKING SET!! Yeah. You got that right. The entire thing. All the characters. All the accessories - the castle, battle cat, etc.. etc....

So I am at Piggly Wiggly with my friend. And I am going to buy a box of Honeycombs. But instead his mother says "oh don't worry, I will pay for it." And she does. So we load the car up and run more errands. Get home and they drop me off and I forget the box. So my mother calls to tell her don't worry about it, she is going into town and will buy me another box.

Get this. That fucker WON!! The whole fucking set. Bitch didn't even like Honeycombs. He just looked in it for the prize. My fucking prize. And didn't even give it to me. What a bitch. When he got all that shit in the mail, he wouldn't even let me turn the throne and work the trap door.

What a fucking little bastard. Justice came back to bite him in the ass a couple years later. He won one of those 15 minutes all you can grab sprees at Toys R Us. I was like "how the fuck he wins all this shit?" Anyway, you could go in and use as many carts as you could fill to load up anything you wanted and then get it to the cash register line to check out. Thing is you had to be at the register when the 15 mins was up. He had filled up about 6 buggies and had them up there, Nintendo games, movies, all kinds of shit. And the bitch was at the back of the store trying to get some lego monster set off the top shelf when the buzzer rang. He didn't get to keep shit. He disqualified himself.

Like a bulky plastic hole puncher? You turned the dial to chose the letter and then squeezed the handle? Then it came out on some cheap plastic stick tape? God, I hated those things.
