As a child in the 80s/early 90s I played little league baseball. Our annual fundraising drive would get capped off by a random draw amongst all the players on the team, performed by the coach at home, and he'd tell us at the next game who won. Prize was 50$, a not-insignificant sum for 8 year olds in 1989!
Sadly, child-me didn't realize that it was a tad fishy that the coach's son won the draw two years running. What fantastic luck!
