I have a few times. When it happens it comes has a shock to me. I won on the radio twice and one time on the tv. A couple times at a fair for free stuff. that all I remember so far.
I won a frozen turkey at the mall once, which was especially odd because I never entered any contest. They announced my name over the PA system and I picked up my "prize" at the CS desk. Weird.
I won a laptop at my high school graduation party a few years back. It was a pretty nice one at the time too, K6-2 333MHz, 13.3" screen, 4.3gig HD, 32megs of ram, etc.....The drawing was held that last hour of the graduation party and it was like 5am in the morning. I was half asleep and they called my name on the PA system. It was sort of a weird morning, I was happy, but I was falling asleep driving home.
When I was 26 years old, I walked by a slot machine and won a new Corvette, just by dropping 3 quarters in and pulling the handle. We went to our room, celebrated, then slept. The next day, I hit a $15,000 jackpot on another machine, within seconds of beginning playing. It was unreal. I told my wife, let's get the hell out of here. We flew to Hawaii for another 6 days of fun.
