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.

Lousy Christmas...Every year the local Fish and Game club would hold a Christmas draw for all the members kiddies. First prize was a fancy electric train set. We all got entered, and I won... a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles travel mug. Hooray! (the show had been off the air for about 3 years so I'm not sure where they dug this joy up). And the worst bit? My little brother won the bloody train. Bastard.
