Who's won a competition?

I won a Sherlock Holmes poster signed by Robert Downey Jr, Jude Law, Mark Strong, Guy Ritchie, Rachel McAdams and Kelly Reilly.
You can see it in my home theater pics

Anyone else won something awesome?

Try me.. It's been over 10 years but I know I can still play at a high level.

Just like playing basketball. I don't play like I used to but it's a natural to me when I do play a pick up game.

Not if you have a good overhead smash. Those things hurt a bit if your aim is good also.

First time I won something was for the middle school weather forcast for correctly guessing a nighttime temperature of 29deg for the month of September. I got lucky because it was a record 'low' that night.

Now I maintain a thread on this forum about global 'warming' - Arctic Sea Ice

Batman1980 · 08-02-2010, 06:26 PM

I won my TV as a door prize in 2008.

GLaDOS · 08-02-2010, 08:22 PM

Hey now, playing girls games has its benefits, like all your teammates are women.

I am a competitive guy, so I have a decent list. I was a 4 time consecutive grand champion paintball player playing AA and AAA ball in the Great Western Tournament Series back in the mid 1990's.

I also won the biggest penis competition where your girlfriend was the judge.
