Have you ever won anything?
 

Has anyone here ever won anything really big? expensive?

The most I've ever one was 10 bux on a lottery ticket. I just bought some tickets for a dreamhome today, I have to win something! I cant be a loser my whole life :disgust

Any interesting stories?

I won $10,000 on a horse race in 1994.

i won about $1000 playing on hockey!

My grandma used to take me and my brother to the tracks when we were little, she used to give us 2 dollars each to bet. I think I won a few bux.

I won $300 in a snooker tournament. :)

I win about once a week at content lotto. (I'm not lying either)
Overall I've won over $1000 worth of free stuff from there over the past 2 months.

Never any serious amount of money & I lost more money overall from those things.

Just under £2k during the world cup, never lost a single bet on that tournament. May be due to the fact that I know when to call it quits. :1orglaugh

I won the Design Council/British Aerospace design prize in 1989 - got to meet Prince Edward on TV to receive my award. I won lots of art and design competitons until I discovered bikes, beer and birds...

One time I had a roommate skip out on me three months before our lease was up. I decided to stick it out but would be losing around $1000 in extra rent. Right about that time I won $1000 in a church lottery my parents entered my name in. Kinda spooky, huh?

I won a trip for two to New Orleans for the Sugar Bowl in 2000...me and my girl at the time both despise college football, so we scalped the tix on Bourbon Street, partied hard for 3 days, and came home with more money than we left with.

Oh and I won a dvd player from GFY for having the most replys on a thread that I started :)

When I was in college, some girl bet me $20 I wouldnt fuck her...i think it was a clever pick up line. After I fucked her I asked her for the $20 and she wouldnt pay me. She said what she did was better than $20...

I was a little upset. None the less I did get laid

The number they needed was 51, and they had 15....they won $5000 split amongst 15 people....one more number, and they would have been splitting 300 mill...
