I've got some cool news to share. I joined a golf forum recently and signed up for their membership which allows you to enter to win various contests throughout the year. Well, I just won an all expenses paid trip to Vegas to get custom fitted for new clubs and will get to play TPC Las Vegas.

Pretty damn pumped right now. This is easily the biggest thing I've ever won.

How about you?

I won $2500 from ESPN once. They had a game called Three Play. It was fun. I barely missed the big prize, cannot remember how much that was worth though. Sucks that money didn't go as far as I needed it to. Most of it went to a computer for college.

Also won free tickets to the 2013 MLS Cup Final. Sat two rows back at Sporting Kansas City's field and watched a good game. Wife was pregnant at the time. One of our last trips before kids. We were on ESPN several times and had some Instagram pics go out of us from some MLS players because of our furry jackets we wore. It was absolutely frigid that game.

I won floor tickets to GSW Clippers game back in ~2013 or so. That was amazing to sit that close, now it's hard to watch live sports from a shitty seat.

Haven’t won much. Mainly fantasy football. Won two leagues for about a grand one year and then one of them the following year for $500. Unfortunately came in 2nd this year for $100 and couldn’t finish the trifecta

I won 1000.00 on a scratch off ticket I got as a gag gift from a cheap ass boss about 8-10 years ago. The fuckwad found out that I won and tried to say that every body would throw their winnings in and split with all the employees SMFH

Everybody looked at him like he was the asshole that he was
