I won a "fishing stool" ( A stool with a handy insulated pouch for your cold pop, or w/e ...or maybe to keep your bait cool! :lol: ) anyway, since I dont fish, and it was a fathers Day draw, I gave my Dad a nice father's day gift that only cost me the price of a ticket! :)

I'm not one of those people that wins things but just last week I won a book. It's the first and only thing I ever won so I guess it's the best. :)

In third grade, I won 2nd prize in for a poster I made for Fire Prevention Week. I still have the ribbon!

In my senior year of high school, there was a senior breakfast complete with door prizes before graduation. I ended up winning a disposable camera. That came in handy as I used it on our family trip to California a couple of months later.

I've also caught two bridal bouquets. Does that count as winning something? :rofl:

I won a Punky Brewster doll in kindergarten for selling the most candy.

I also won a Cabbage Patch doll, a bike, a CD player in the fifth grade, and I won a charity auction date with Brian Austin Green when I was 13(my dad won the date for me at one of his many charity dinners.)

Would this count if I named pageant contests(my mother put my sis and I when we were little, then as my sis lost interest, I still continued until 16.), art contests, and talent shows?

In 1992, I won a sweepstakes to go anywhere in the world for a week. That was the 2nd prize!! The grand prize was anywhere in the world for 2 weeks. I always wanted to go to Paris. So I did!! I entered it at one of our local supermarkets. Then after that, I just used to win local stuff - alot of concert tickets, won a contest to go to the opening of Downtown Disney(saw Gloria Estefan there), won to go to the opening of All-Star Cafe in Orlando(met Tiger Woods there).
