I scream, she screams, and the game-runner's in disbelief before celebrating. He probably forgot I was still playing after how long it was taking me.

She picks the prize and names it after a friend of hers who passed away a few years ago. Dude tells us I'm the first person to win in two days and sixth since the fair started I think three days ago.

She carries it as best as she can but it blocks her vision and accidentally bumped into people. She had been play-guilting me earlier that night because I had been talking about a friend who wanted me to win his dog a chew-toy, so she had been saying things like "So, are you gonna win me a prize?" Now she's accidentally colliding into people with her prize while kids passing by are shouting about how huge her dragon is. It was great.

As we were leaving, we came across the couple who were trying to win the game before we got there who lost a lot of money. Their eyes widens and asked if we won it at the bottle game -- yep. They shared their disappointment and closest efforts and asked how I did it.

I gave him the one-minute version. tl;dr - family tradition, decade+ in the making for me personally. He said he was going to recreate the game at home and I cheered that man on as best as I could saying that was what my dad and I did. He was still sore he didn't win, but maybe that'll lead to a new bottle conquerer in due time.

It was a great night.
