Raffles

The sort I find annoying are the ones (often at dance clubs), where an announcement is made "please bring a raffle prize", and everyone does. The raffle takes forever - 'I've already won, draw it again'.

We had a vote at our club someone objected to raffles at the Saturday dances. It was fairly evenly split between people who liked them and those who didn't, so the committe decided to carry on to help afford good bands and callers.
