Oh. That reminds me. I won about $40 in undergraduate school on some cheesy campus game show. They randomly picked me and a half-dozen other people out of the crowd, and we had a series of contests where the last-place person got eliminated each round. I don't remember most of the contests, but one of them was draining a baby bottle of fruit punch. It was that sort of thing.
I lost when my pile of blocks collapsed right at the end of the "build the highest pile of blocks" competition. It stank. If I could've beaten a couple more people, I would've gone into one of those booths with the big fan and the dollar bills all blowing around it.
Even so, $40 was a huge win for me at the time, because I was malnourished and was pretty much picking through the Dumpsters® for leftover cafeteria food.
