and once there was this lottery on a highschool prom over here. I was kinda drunk and spent all my money on tickets cuz the first price was a trip for 2 to greece. I even got a few guys to buy me more tickets.
I got 20 tickets saying "you lost" and the 21st said "you won"-I was all excited, thinking I won the trip. but I won a CYCLING HELMET! *grrr*
my friend had no luck either. she won a prezel the length of a human arm.

I won the "really cool" cycling helmet when I was drunk at a high school prom when I was 17. (we have bars at all proms over here)

Anyway, I enjoyed this umbrella
that was my first prize in my life and unfortunately, last
Naw, I realized I didn't read it well... you didn´t manage to hide it from me though. I hear and see everything *hehe*but drunk at 13 is sad reality, kids can get alcohol so easily over here
My BIL is the luckiest punk ~ seems he's always winning on a scratch off.. $500 here, $1,000 there! lol..
As for me... I won two tickets to Lollapalooza in 1996.. it was pretty cool. Some of the groups we saw included Metallica, Soundgarden, Ramones, Rancid, Screaming Trees, The Melvins, the Shaolin Monks, Psychotica, etc. Good times... Goooood times.

Nice!
Once, I won VIP tickets to a concert. My friends and I got picked up by a limo and we got VIP treatment the whole way. We got to meet the artists (Luce, Sixpence None The Richer, and Macy Gray). We had a blast!
Check out the pic! I have won some $$ in Vegas but I've left it there.

i played lotto for the first time the other week and won $10, but instead of getting the money, i got another ticket and lost lol
for this radio station called z100 here, my sis won 100 cases of pepsi and $600 to princeton ski shop. too bad my family's never gone skiing, so we bought rollerblades and jackets lol we never got the cases of pepsi, though.
I once won $204 off a radio contest. You had to fax them your name and phone number. They called a name every hour and if your name got called, you would get $102 if you called them back withint 10-20 minutes. The next hour, they would call someone else's name and if they didn't call back, you got another $102. So I got two hours worth of $.
I've also won some other things off of the radio:
a GC to a pizza place
two tickets to the Big Mele, which is a concert with a bunch of bands
