PCA raffle…anyone know a winner?
 

I see these raffle opportunities come in the mail with fairly decent odds, at least compared to the lottery. I haven’t ever participated, or at least not yet. Has anyone here won or know of anyone that has? Like Ed McMahon used to say, “ you may already be a winner!”.

A mater of fact, Yes I know a winner

One of the San Diego PCA Members won a few years ago. IIRC, he went for the cash $80k.

For privacy reasons, I won't disclose his name

Privacy? They post winner names upon the website. That, and license plate numbers, lol.

A couple of yrs ago a guy in Des Moines won a 911. He loaded it up with options, incl PTS in purple. Stunning car.

So yes, ppl do win the lottery cars.

John,

Me personally, after being online since the beginning of time (UUnet, newsgroups, before the real internet took over the world) would never want someone to publically throw my name out there just for the ask.
With my permission, that is a whole other story. ;)

I'm not John.I was referencing the name pulled from the site identifying whom I believe to be the winner. It's all public information. I can't imagine the winner driving around with his plate obscured.

Have a great day! :cheers:

Too many spam bots to post someone elses information without their permission. I find it disheartening to see it occur on a day to day basis, but guess in todays day and age, civility is not even considered beforehand.

Cool! Might be worth the $50. I’ve spent more for less.

You find public information disheartening? Do you cover your license plate when driving around? Want to take this to the off-topic discussions? :cool:

Straying further from the topic, I thought this poster was a funny joke until I read the book, 'The Pentagon's Brain' about DARPA.

Sadly, privacy is a thing of the past.

I knew they weren't real, and your link confirms it. Freaking fake birds! :mad:

I'm not here to fight over nonsense, but I will interject a little common sense here and there. In Ca you can look up ownership by plates, not great if you are being stalked.

PS: In Ca it's true, they don't use birds for surveillance, they use bees ;)

Only names in the last few years. No license plates as they don't have the car yet
