Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner

So, most of you know by now, I did NOT win the Super Bowl Package trip to Miami. Guess I'll have to work on my tan another time. Nonetheless, I've been on an impressive winning streak lately and it's not the first time.

The first significant thing I can remember winning was a car care package at my junior prom. I don't think I had a car yet, but I hugged that bottle of wax like it was a gold trophy. Yes, I know what you're thinking - not very significant. But the thrill of having my name called out in the raffle was enough of a prize for me. Since then, I've won a sack of stuff over the years: an Amanda Bynes DVD (I don't even remember the name the movie); $700 in a 50/50 Raffle; $100 worth of organic dog food; a ski package from Nashoba Valley; four passes to the Harry Potter exhibit; a bottle of raspberry-flavored vodka; court-side Celtics tickets; behind-the-plate Red Sox tickets; third-base Red Sox tickets; a vodka gift basket; a hair-care gift basket; a North Shore golf gift certificate; a Dunkin Donuts gift certificate; a $25 gift card to Target; a $30 gift card to Best Buy; and, most recently, $1500 at Foxwoods!

I'm sure there are prizes that I'm forgetting. But, overall, I have pretty good luck! Admittedly, I also have some of the worst luck, as well. (Two days after winning $700 my apartment burned down. Go figure.) But, as the saying goes, guess you can't win 'em all!
