It's so brutal hearing that people have said 'Hello' instead of 'Make Me A Winner,' but it's so ingrained in us. There's also the risk of saying 'Make Me A Winner' but it's someone else, like a work call or people's kids' school calling.
I have 'Make Me A Winner' written on a Post-It as I wait for the call!7 -
Ive got an alarm set on my phone at 4pm as a reminder so if it rings i can know what to say

Another radio station ran a similar competition where you could win money & you had to answer with a silly phrase. They did the call about 08:30 in the hope that someone would answer & be on public transport & the person answering would say "I farted" or something similar.MargateAdam said:It's so brutal hearing that people have said 'Hello' instead of 'Make Me A Winner,' but it's so ingrained in us.
