Crappy PrizesCompetitions, raffles, give-aways... sure the prizes look great, but don't they always turn out a bit crap should you happen to win them?
The last raffle I bought tickets for, they'd just given away the all-expenses paid weekend in New York when my number came up. Rushing up to find out what I'd won, I was a little disappointed to be handed a box of "Biscuits for Cheese". Especially as they were busy serving the cheese course (complete with biscuits) as they drew the raffle.

ah, alsoleaving primary school, lots of prizes given out for Best at Sports, or Clown etc. The class genius got the learning prizes and got books etc., and the bully got the sports ones, winning kit. So that year they had to pad a bit.
My best friend got Lovliest Girl.
She got chocolates.
I got Best Artist.
I won a 2B pencil.
Arse.
I should have given up there and then. It was an omen, I tell you.
