I always got trophies in elementary school for grades and such. Middle and High School reverted to paper certificates, which were meaningless to me. I did win a few local and state science fairs in High School. Even got a graphing Calculator as a prize, once. I was awarded 3 scholarships for college. And at work, I've been given a few little $50/$100 GC for completing projects ahead of schedule and such. Other than that, no. I don't play sports or compete at anything, really.
