Okay so I was watching Toonami and they have a movie each week in December and along with the movie is the sweepstakes of winning a T-shirt. And the four movies that Toonami played were Akira, Summer Wars, Fullmetal Alchemist: Conqueror of Shamballa (I think), and Trigun: Badlands Rumble. Every week I went to the website and enter in my entries every possible minute for four weeks...yeah I'm insane, lol. And then after the sweepstakes is over, I was waiting for a while until I get this awesome e-mail on January 28th from Toonami T.O.M. himself and it said this:

"Congratulations! You have been selected as a Week 4 Toonami t-shirt winner! Expect to see your shirt in the mail late February.

Thanks for watching!

Love, TOM"

My jaw dropped and I screamed in excitement, and cried happy tears because I finally won something! And then later in February I got my shirt delivered to me, and I was like "wait, Atlanta, Georgia? Turner Broadcasting...OH, IT'S MY SHIRT!!!" And I excitedly opened it and it's my shirt (as pictured here)

And a note that says "Thanks for watching Toonami...we love you!" That's my story and I've never been more happier than this.

Oh, and sorry for the excessive lighting when I had this picture taken. Stupid sunlight.

Well Toonami had this thing during The Intruder Part 1, that 5 grand prize winners would win a trip to Japan if they voted for the perfect engines for the Absolution. Of course, I was like either 8 or 9 back then, and yeah I wouldn't qualify, anyways, lol. Now I wonder what they'll do for The Intruder Part 2 coming next year.
