So on Tuesday here in Orlando, Mix 105.1 had Free Ticket Tuesday where you can call the radio station during certain times of the day for a chance to win free tickets to a concert or event that is going on the future. Well, this past Tuesday (Feb 28) they were giving away tickets to see Coldplay in Tampa for June 28, 2012. All day I tried calling in (at the designated times), and I got in a total of 6 times. The first time, they were looking for caller number 105 and I got caller 4, and then 104 a few minutes after that. The numbers I got were: 90, 30, 62. The next few times, I didn't get through at all, and figured I probably wasn't going to get through for the rest of the day, but I continued to call anyways. I was at home, and the last two tickets were going to be given away to caller number 15. I called several times before I walked into my bathroom (to get better reception) and it rang a good six times and I was like "I must have missed it, but better stay on the line just to make sure." The DJ finally picked up and this is how it went:

DJ: Hello? Who is this?
Me: Hi. Melissa. Am I too late?
DJ: Too late for what?
Me: To be caller number 15.
DJ: Caller 15 for what?
Me: For the Coldplay tickets.
DJ: Do you like Coldplay?
Me: Yes. I love them. Me and my mom have been calling all day.
DJ: Would you get excited if I told you you were caller 15?
Me: Yes...Wait, what?
DJ: Then you better get excited because you're caller 15.
Me: NO FRIKKIN WAY! ARE YOU SERIOUS?
DJ: I'm very seirous.
Me: OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE IT *SQUEALS LIKE A LITTLE GIRL*
DJ: *Laughs* So you and your mom have been calling all day?
Me: Yes. I've gotten through 5 other times, and was caller 104 earlier today.
DJ: Wow, that's close. So did you have to skip school for your chance to win?
Me: No, I called during school.
DJ: Well, I hope you didn't miss the FCAT for this, or miss a test.
Me: No, I didn't. I'm way past FCAT.
DJ: Oh okay *sarcastically* Well, give me a second and then I need to ask you a few questions.
Me: Okay. *waits*
DJ: Okay, so what is your full name and middle initial?
   •He then proceeds to ask me the typical questions: Address, SSN, City, Zipcode, blah, blah, blah. And then....
DJ: Now I need your birthdate.
Me: August 6, 1992.
DJ: Okay...wait. You're 19?!
Me: Yes...?
DJ: *gasps* Holy cow I feel so terrible right now.
Me: Why?
DJ: I totally thought you were a young high schooler...
Me: *laughs* It's okay, don't feel bad. Over the phone I sound a lot younger.
DJ: I am soooooo sorry...I feel bad for saying what I did about FCAT and skipping school....Crap.
Me: *just laughing some more* It's cool, really.
DJ: Okay...[he then tells me the times for when I have to pick up my tickets at the station and stuff then we hang up].

I CANNOT BELIEVE I WON! That is the FIRST time I've ever won anything! And to win COLDPLAY tickets [two] on my FIRST time is fucking AMAZING!!! I have been stuck on Cloud 9 since then. I am still overwhelmed with that feeling and realization. I get my tickets tomorrow (Thursday, March 1) so I can't wait!! Eeeeeeee! This is so exciting!!! :3
