My college coach had a meeting before a dual meet and asked everyone to think of a number between 1 and 10,000. I was the second person he asked for the number and when I told him, he exclaimed that I had guessed it exactly. My prize was swimming the 1,000 - 200 fly and 500.
I never did figure out what I did to deserve that - and he never told me. I did that combo of events enough times that I eventually figured out the secret of how to swim it.
