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.
I don't feel sorry for you. You're just too damn lazy to "detassel" or "walk beans".
