The Life of Dad community came together this holiday season to talk about the best thing they’ve won, from a second chance at life to a 60 lb chocolate Santa to the girl of your dreams…twice!
What’s the best thing you’ve ever won?
Posted by Life of Dad on Saturday, November 25, 2017
Donald Crigler: Second chance at life after successful heart transplant back in April!
Clayton Holman: When I was 15 years old the top 5 kids (academic wise) in the state of Indiana were entered to be Senate pages for a day. I won the contest. It was really cool. The governor (Evan Bayh) ended up taking me out to lunch with a couple other pages.
Ray Stewart: The chance to be on a weight loss tv show. I guess it’s not something won, but if felt like I won the weight-loss lottery.
Greg Rixon: North Bay League (Northern California) Track Championship in 1966. Set the league record in 70 yd high hurdles (7.0 secs). Record still stands.
Brian Hagman: I won a $500 college scholarship that covered half of one textbook!
Cas Sanchez: My fantasy football league 2 years in a row, this is going to be the 3rd year in a row!!
Andrew Scott Nichols: My wife, both when we were first married (three years), and then again after a three year divorce. That was twenty-one years ago.
Lee Fletcher: Robocop on VHS tape, 2nd prize in an ST Format gaming magazine competition…must’ve been around 1988-89. I was 9-10, and Robocop was an 18. Best film EVER!
Ron Verishine: A 60 pound, 3 foot tall chocolate Santa from the Bernard Callebaut chocolate shop in Lethbridge. He was nearly as tall as my kids and valued at $500.
Brian Lara: I won a bear out of those claw machines. $1 but the woman I won it for is amazing. Feel like I could do anything with her by my side.
Dee Harris: The love and respect of my daughter in law. Best prize ever!
Dan Grimes: Full sole physical and legal custody of both of my children.
Joseph Turkish: The over under argument on the roll of toilet paper!!
