Dano Posted March 18, 2012 Share #27 Posted March 18, 2012 Dang, THAT was a mistake on my part! Sorry Cougar, I really meant Condor! Gotta be that brain injury thing! Well, I guess moving my 84 from the shed, around the country block(5 miles!) and into the garage ( my bro-in-law was following on my sons Katana 750, top speed 35 mph) SUCCESSFULLY(!) was another part of it. Don't worry, won't do it again for awhile! BUT I CAN RIDE!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cougar Posted March 18, 2012 Share #28 Posted March 18, 2012 Just razzing you bro, heal up fast! glad we all could help you out a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Condor Posted March 19, 2012 Share #29 Posted March 19, 2012 OK folks. We have a winner and I tell you, I think it is a bit ironic due to recent events. Also this has to be about the luckiest guy I know when it comes to trailer raffles. and the winner is: Number 27 Condor Geeze thanks Don. I think I'll head to Las Vegas... Some of you may not believe it when I say this, but I really feel guilty. Some of you will also know that I recently had my Cody Trailer stolen. It was insured, and I'm presently working with the insurance company on the payout. I really liked that trailer, and have found an upgrade model locally on Craigslist. I have talked to the seller and explained the situation, and if the payout is enough I'll be buying it. I want everyone to know that I wasn't ignoring this announcement it's just that the wife has been in the hosipital for the last coupple of days and I just brought her home today. So been busy... The first I heard of anything was when I finally checked my email and had a PM notice from Mini-Muffin saying she needed my address.... so she could mail me the title. At first I thought she was pulling my leg.... Guess not... So why am I typing all this?? When I mailed the check to Dan and Rose, I told Don to take my tickets and put them in Dano's name. I guess Don felt it wouldn't look right with Dano entering the raffle so they were left in my name. So the real winner is........... Dano. He can re-raffle the trailer, or sell it to one of the members... I'm sure they could still use a few bucks..., or keep it?? What ever he decides. I bet he might even be open to offers....

ragtop69gs Posted March 19, 2012 Share #32 Posted March 19, 2012 gesture Condor I missed seeing the first raffle, maybe I'll get a second chance after all . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongobobny Posted March 19, 2012 Share #33 Posted March 19, 2012 Condor, there are several of us that were thinking that exact thought if we would have won! You da man Jack!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share #34 Posted March 19, 2012 Bob is correct. There were a number of folks that wanted their tickets donated to Dano. To be honest, I sort of forgot to review all that info when I was drawing numbers but I would rather have just done it this way. I always fear that some folks will feel that it was rigged or something. That's also why I never put my own name in the drawing. I always donate but would never want to end up winning. Just wouldn't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano Posted March 20, 2012 Share #35 Posted March 20, 2012 Well, I've been thinking about this since yesterday,,, I feel that someone who sent in $$ to win a trailer should be able to do that. So here's my latest thought. Let me know what you guys think. I'll accept the trailer that Condor won, but I will take the tix that Don posted, not including those that aren't worried about it, and have my niece (2 yrs old!) pick out a winner and offer them my current trailer (pic below) and try and get it to them by a generous VR relay. Kinda like getting the one from WA back to me(??!). Let me know here what you all think about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think since the 'tickets' only existed electronically you will need to write numbers on slips of paper and toss them into a hat. Shouldn't be all that difficult?? BTW you can leave mine out of the mix... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share #37 Posted March 20, 2012 Nope, I have all the names with ticket numbers assigned. I can send it to Dan if he needs it. They all he has to do is use the random number generator to pick a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Annie Posted March 20, 2012 Share #38 Posted March 20, 2012 Have been away, so missed all the fun of the drawing...... cannot believe the luck Jack has! I personally think it's fabulous that Dano will have the trailer that Mini and Muffinman so generously let us use while touring the states Need to contact IH Truck Guy, and get that thing hauled back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongobobny Posted March 20, 2012 Share #39 Posted March 20, 2012 Or, you could keep the trailer as a reminder of your family here at VR... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albyzee Posted March 20, 2012 Share #40 Posted March 20, 2012 If I won it I was going to have it sold for whatever could be gotten and split the money. So you might as well sell it yourself and keep all of the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeeze Posted March 24, 2012 Share #41 Posted March 24, 2012 (edited) I'm really sad to hear that i didn't win the Trailer. :crying: I'm happy to read that Condor won it and what he said to do with with it. It's Kind of what i've done if i'd won ... :happy34::bowdown: I want to thank all of you who donated (that means you two Muffin's too) or put Money into the Raffle to help out my Brother from a different Mother and last, but certainly not at least, i want to thank Don for spending his Time in making this happen.
