The best thing I've ever won is a free Chicken Sandwich from McDonald's. Congrats, Jack. Wow...unlucky...nothing from Mcdonalds is worthy of being a prize in anything. Lol jack, ive played those instant lottery things before, i enjoy them. Every now and again ill get my mum or dad to buy me a $5 crossword one. I like them because they have bonuses and doubles and junk. Ive won $50 before. thats my highest though anyway congrats, i could use $20 extra at the moment.

I won about £5 worth of 50p's on a machine where you stick in coins and hope more drop down, turns out I'd spent about £7 worth of coins by the time I did win.

That's awesome, dude. $20 is still $20. That's really cool that it happened on your birthday, too.

The most amount of money my parents won on a ticket was $50 and they were impressed, since they usually only win $5.

Congrats on you're win, & the birthday. My most unexpected win was probably when I won the Bret/HBK Montreal 2 Pack here on the boards a year or so ago. It was totally random & I didnt think I had a chance.

nice going dude the most unexpected thing i ever won was when i was at a tower records in philly. and all these music stores have all different types of contest where you fill out a slip and put it in a box. well, i usually fill them out not thinking of winning anything. then a few weeks later, i get a call saying i won a guitar. i didnt even know what it was. then i get it in the mail and turns out, its a fender strat signed by motley crue. it was so random but still very kick ass

My mum once won £120 (Roughly $240) and bought a jumper. But I was then bitten quite badly by a large dog and she gave the rest to me as she felt sorry for me. She has since given the jumper to a friend. I feel bad lol.
I also once won a trip to go to the premiere of The Emperor's New Groove. It was one o those things where you fill out a slip thinking millions of others do it but you do it anyway for fun...and I won! ;D

Yep. I have a similar story. On July 21st of this year, my dad took me to see Raw at Mohegan Sun Casino for my 20th birthday. Being one year shy of being able to legally gamble was a bummer, but he told me that if I acted like I belong, then I wouldn't get caught. So I did, and I didn't. He gave me $5 to gamble for fun, I picked a machine, and won $20 off of it. Then it plummeted from there, but it was still a rush! Hahaha! Good stuff, though!
Happy belated birthday, Jay, and congrats on the big win! LOL!
