It was one of these airport raffles they do, where we all presume that nobody wins.
He was eighteen at the time and sold it for £75k. He did go halves with a mate, but it set him up nicely to buy his first house.

My dad won a full set of Gary Player golf clubs in a raffle and Gary signed the bag. My dad, myself, my brother & a mate of his went to see a match between Gary Player and Nick Faldo at a golf club, near where I live, before Faldo was well known. £5 a ticket & we had a great day watching them play a course we knew very well. The raffle was held at the end of the day & it was an amazing end to a superb day out.

Not quite a raffle but out of 72,000 entries (allegedly) I won a Plasma TV from a Betfair incentive a number of years ago. Thought it was a wind-up when they rang me

Not a raffle but in 2001 I got to give Thierry Henry the Arsenal player of the month award at Highbury. I didn't even know it was a competition; I thought I was just voting for the player of the month on the website. A year later I won a signed shirt on Football Focus.

Mick I won a bottle of brandy from a raffle two weeks running as a student. Used to do a pub quiz and we got battered by one team all the time, but the raffle was a nice consolation.

I got paid one Friday in Lane Cove in North Sydney and won both the meat raffles that night. I done a monkey playing the pokies so it worked out about 3 bucks per lamb chop/sausage

2 raffle wins: Hackney speedway 1976 (I think) - A set of bathroom scales and my name in next week's programme, which I've still got somewhere.
Huntingdon Races about 20 years ago. I had ticket number 31 but lost it. Would have won a signed copy of Steve Smith Eccles's book. And he was there to hand out the prize and they kept calling out the winning number and I couldn't collect.

A business class ticket with SAS from Singapore (where I lived) to anywhere in Scandinavia.
Since I'd been doing the trip on business, I had no interest in the prize and the ticket never got used.
