Default What is the craziest thing you've ever done...

to try to win something? Were you successful?

I once jumped in a dunk tank full of jello for a chance to win a car. The dunk tank was full of little ping pong balls that had numbers on them. After all of the contestants got a ball with a number the judges picked a number and whoever had the corresponding ping pong ball won the car. I didn't win but it was worth a shot even though I HATE jello and was a complete sticky mess afterwards. You should have seen the way everyone was hosed off and wet afterwards.

Hubby and I won a trip to Los Angeles many years ago just by dropping an entry form into a box at a record store. It was a promotional thing they were doing for a show called something like The Mark and Brian show. They were radio host stars who launched a TV show doing crazy stunts (this was before all the reality TV and youtube stuff today). Anyhow, I guess other people who won trips DID have to do crazy things. The one I remember was the guy who taped dollar bills to his naked body and ran through the NY subway.

I drove in a demolition derby to try and win the trophy. I was pummeled into a corner, so NOT successful.

I can't think of anything crazy I've done to won something. I don't usually enter contests (or play the lottery) because it seems so impossible to win.

I know, I know -- I'm an old fuddy-duddy.

I've never done anything to win anything. I am boring.
