GuruAskew Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I just went home on my lunchbreak and there was this big, long box in the mail. I didn't know what it was until I opened it. It's an aluminum bat with "Grand Theft Auto IV" printed on it (the Rockstar logo is on the bottom of the grip) and apparently I won some contest that I don't even remember entering. They never sent me any notification that I won it in the first place. First I get the Key to the City, now this sweet baseball bat. I'll probably take pictures when I get home. Did anyone else get one? I guess 2000 of them were sent out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xNamexTakenx Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Lucky bastard. How many people win a contest they never even entered lol? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuruAskew Posted January 9, 2009 Author Share Posted January 9, 2009 I actually do kinda remember entering it. A lot of Microsoft stuff is all tied together so if you sign into Hotmail or something and then go to Xbox.com or bungie.net you're already signed in. I remember entering something months ago where you didn't even need to fill anything out, you just pretty much had to click "submit" once you were signed in and I think that's when I entered. There was also a contest not too long ago where you were automatically entered by playing online during a certain period. If you're a Gold member of Xbox Live Microsoft has your address from your billing information. But yeah, they never even sent me an email saying I'd won. It's pretty sweet the way it worked out though, it was a total surprise. With the Key to the City prize I was growing impatient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_bungle Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 I won a snowboard in a competition I don't even remember entering once... But lucky you, I would love to have some GTA IV collectables, I can't seem to find any anywhere in New Zealand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithmii2 Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 (edited) Yeah, I got one of the bats today, too. I was excited as hell. Congrats. It's like the one in the game, but has "GRAND THEFT AUTO IV" printed on the side and has the R* logo on the bottom. Ima go out and replicate Niko now.

chngdman Posted January 10, 2009 Share Posted January 10, 2009 Pepsi delivers prizes in the same fashion. It's actually a legal way to defraud the government. All of the foreigner-owned companies who hate america do this when they run their contests, it helps to keep more of our money. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
