I won a couple of McD gift cards from a humane society. They had a
booth at a chili fest, doing a
throw-the-dart-at-the-cardboard-cutout-of-Michael-Vick contest as a
fundraiser. My whole family lined up to play that one. I nailed Vick
in the crotch, for which I won a McDonalds gift card. Did it again,
scored another card.
