5. That was the time limited skill testing question. Tell how you really won. The WET T-Shirt part.

[LynneSin]

7. Never did a wet t-shirt but I did win another t-shirt for flashing my boobs at a bar

That was down in Ocean City Maryland and I remember being rip-roaring drunk after celebrating the Flyers beating the Rangers with 6.8 seconds left in the game. It was the playoffs and Lindros scored the goal. That was May 23rd, 1997

I remember being at Shenighans watching the game surrounded by a bunch of Rangers fans. Luckily the bartenders were all Flyers fans so they kept feeding me free shots of tequila. After that it started getting foggy but I believe we moved on to the Brass Balls Saloon since that would have been the natural progression on the boardwalk - there I was pretty piss-eyed drunk in celebration so I was pretty much game for just about anything. When the DJ offered a free t-shirt for first girl that got his attention I just naturally flashed the boobs. I looked pretty good back then.

8. The link sucks! I thought is was a pic of you flashing.

I get a charge watching a game surrounded by the enemy. I have no fear!

[ohiosmith]

19. I get a charge out of boob flashing. I have no fear.

Well maybe a little. But just a little.

10. Without Googling or looking at the other replies: Barber.

How'd I do?

I remember once Charlie Brown won a prize of five free haircuts. He mentioned that his dad was a barber, and he didn't have a lot of hair anyway.

[LynneSin]

11. Okay - answer me this - who did he win the prize from?

I use to have a book of Peanuts cartoons and that series was in there!

[Aristus]

12. I think Peppermint Patty awarded him the prize.

But it was a prize offered by the sponsor of a motocross race Charlie Brown entered. He bought the Charlie Brown Christmas Tree equivalent of a motorbike, and for some reason won the race by default, thinking he was going to win a pair of tickets to the Pro Bowl. The sponsor couldn't get the tickets, so he got the haircut prize instead.

[LynneSin]

14. well you killed my next question but it wasn't Peppermint Patty

It was Violet

[Aristus]

16. Darn!

I was hoping my prize would be the pic of you flashing at the sports bar...

[Pab Sungenis]

21. He won it in a motocross race.

It was supposed to be a pair of pro bowl tickets, but the organizers couldn't get them.
