So, I finally won something

About maybe a year ago, I made a post where I stated that I was going to participate in  every raffle type contest possible. My objective was to win something for free. I assumed that the odds of winning were higher if you signed up for more contests. Likewise, some contests might have only a few people signing up. Turns out that I was right.

A few weeks ago, 93.1 Rock, the local radio station, informed me that I won two tickets to go see Green Day in concert when they visit Miami, this August. The tickets indicate I’ll be on the floor, row 1010. Let’s hope that rather close. I know that while the American Airlines Arena is kind of big, the floor can’t hold that much people. I wish the tickets had included back-stage access. Maybe, next time. Still, it feels good to win something without having to bribe anyone.

The 93.1 Rock contest consisted of adding a caption to a picture posted on the station’s website. The station had a different picture for every week along with different prizes. I posted religiously every week and now, they selected my caption as the best. Problem is I can’t exactly remember the caption nor the picture. But the important thing is that I won and of course, I’ll keep signing up for any contest I hear of. Hopefully, I can win those tickets to London, Los Angeles or Oahu.
