Other than Publisher's Clearinghouse (which I used to send in regularly for my parents after carefully folding and tearing up the perforated sheet of subscription stamps because that was a satisfying thing) where Ed Mcmahon would show up at someone's door I never saw a marketed winner. He never showed up at our door either. You're right. What's going on here? I’ve known a couple of winners, but only of the lottery.

Unfortunately, there was a hurricaine while she was there so they flew them home first class. A long time ago tickets to a Black Sabbath concert in New York was the prize in an English local newspaper. Someone won it, but his parents bought the prize off him and didn't even bother to turn up to the concert. So people do sort of win. We celebrate when we get our money back from a scratch card - that can't be right... My aunt won a trip for two to Florida with a visit to Disney World/land (whichever one is there).
