I am obsessed with entering competitions, and I’ve won quite a few by now (I got free tickets to the same music festival seven years in a row due to my dedication). I love hearing stories of what others win and how they use their winnings.

    Just some minor nonsense. But all of it yields a fun memory.

    I won a hat from a Wario Ware (Wii) tournament at my country’s biggest nerd-convention circa 2009. Got like a 15 minigame lead on the second place too.

    I won a(n imported, we’re brazilian, these were never published here) copy of a My Little Pony Comic Omnibus from a giveaway at an MLP forum I participated in some 10 years ago. I never read the physical comic, it just sits untouched at my shelf. I just read the pirated .cbr

    A few months later my SO won a Hot Topic Vinyl Figure of Princess Luna (also imported) from another giveaway at the same forum, and gifted it to me.
