What is the best/biggest thing you have ever won?

I won a Blackberry PDA in a career day raffle. That's pretty much it. I usually avoid stupid raffles and lotteries.

 

I matched 4 numbers ($51, I think) at Texas Lotto 3 different times within a few months, right after I started playing. I don't think I've won anything at it since.

 

I won a Razor scooter from Old Navy.

 

A trip from Germany to Teneriffa with a scratch ticket, worth about $ 2,000. Unfortunately, I was only 11 years old and the trip included visits to a casino, etc., so my dad went instead .

 

$80 on the Pick 3.

 

Won a Nokia nGage from the Nokia booth at the UT Engineering Career Expo a few years back... dud....

Also won ACL 3-day passes from my work back in 2008 right after I procrastinated too long and let them sell out before I got mine... that's probably the best/most fortunate thing I've won...

 

Raffle at work, won an ipod nano.

 

$100 scratch off

When I was 14, my folks were at the annual Ducks Unlimited gala/fundraiser, which featured a raffle. After dinner & drinks & socializing & sitting through some of the raffle, the couple they had driven with decided it was time to call it a night, so they left.

Grand Prize: fully decked-out 1990 Jeep Wrangler Safari

My dad's name was drawn.

You had to be present to win.

This would have been my jeep.

Still kinda makes me want to cry.

 

A copy of the remastered "Misplaced Childhood" CD by Marillion, autographed by the lead singer, Fish.

 

My girlfriend and I won an Amazon Kindle last week at UH. I've also won $30 on a scratch off. That's all I can think of at the top of my head.

 

I'm a loser.

 

Probably 10,000 Delta Skymiles by spinning a wheel at a Braves game many years ago.

 

I was the 100,000th visitor to some site a couple times.

I didn't click on the popup though.

 

a trip to jamaica (Hedo 3)that we used as our honeymoon.

 

$150 on a 1 dollar scratcher

 

$1000 on Wheel of Fortune. Had a bad day, but I solved a toss up.

 

Wow, I've always wondered what it's like to be on a game show. I'm betting the butterflies were going crazy.

Clip?

 

I won a 19" LCD tv, DVD player, the movie "Hitch", 6 Freebird's gift certificates for a free burrito, and $150 cash at some cheesy game at UH a couple years ago.
