In my whole life, I have won twice. Once I called in on a radio show and I was able to guess 5 songs that were played for 1 second each. I can't remember what I won. It was something stupid. Then, again on a radio show many years later, I won Elton John tickets just by being the tenth caller.
That's about it.
How about you?

I'm lucky. I've won LOTS of stuff. One of the best is a voltage regulator that I put a ticket in at a seminar for Monster Cable. Thing is usually about $700 dollars and I predicted I would win because my ticket ended in 49 and I'm a 49er fan. Hahaha! Also have won a mountain bike from a radio station, numerous trips from work, and other things like a gold bracelet.

I won a national photography contest, I won a "design a lottery scratch ticket" contest, I won $250 on a lotto ticket, I won meal coupons for a "design a set" radio contest, I've won various raffles... actually I'm very lucky at raffles. I've placed at several tournaments for a game called Malifaux, I won a writing contest and got second place in another. Probably some other things. I was a competative speaker in high school and got quite a few awards for that.0

I won some Monday Night Football throwing contest at my favorite bar once a long time ago and won tickets to the Phoenix Cardinals v. Dallas Cowboys football game in Phoenix. At the time, the Cardinals and Cowboys were in the same division...this was also long before the Cardinals stadium was built and they played at the college stadium. There were more Cowboys fans there than Cardinals fans...that was kind of sad. The prize included two tickets to the game, air fare, hotel, and limo to and from the game.
When I lived in San Diego I won tickets (radio show) to the Chargers v Dolphins playoff game...think that was '94...same year Chargers went to the Superbowl and received that beat down from the 49ers. I was super stoked about that prize as I am a Dolphins fan and it was the first and last time I ever saw Dan Marino play in person...unfortunately, it was a loss...but it was a good game.

I won my 7th grade spelling bee. I won the Science award when I graduated from high school. In college, I won the "pig naming contest" in freshman biology (we had to submit the name of the fetal pig we were dissecting...mine was "Treyf" which means non-kosher). I won a karaoke contest with a stranger who thought I looked like someone who would know the lyrics to Meatloaf's "Paradise by the Dashboard Light." And I've won a few random raffles, drawings, and door prizes over the years.0
