Is this a record...

Options
... for the shortest notification of a prize?

I was notified by Time Out at 12.30pm today that I had won two tickets to go and see Alice's Adventures in Wonderland at Holland Park, West London for the 2.30pm performance!!! Obviously, I am not organised enough to be able to drop everything and get over to West London in two hours!

Anyone else experienced this?

    They were going to e-mail, so maybe lots of drop outs.
