I've never seen this posted so I wanna ask... whats the coolest thing you've ever won?

I really think winning 40 bucks from an instant game was the best ive won....

nothing like "I won money in poker" i mean you won it, like a contest or something... no skill involved

I won a bike from a coloring contest (i scribbled on the picture, but it was random drawing not skill) when I was like 8 or 9.

It was funny, because as soon as I was informed it was just random, I stopped coloring neat and said, "So it wouldn't matter if I did this?" ::scribbles on entire paper::

Grand prize to a circus from the local fox channel, included an escort around the place, great seats, tons of souveniors, etc.

I won some other small things from them too, like everytime I entered basically because they ran these contests online and not many people had computers, let alone internet access

CDs from the local radio station. The CDs weren't that cool themselves; what was cool was the fact that I regularly won a CD each month for about 3 or 4 months.
