Default Topps World Series and Spring Training Trips

For a number of years in the 1980s, Topps offered prizes of free trips to World Series games and Spring Training sites.

If anyone reading happened to win any such trip, or knew someone who did, I am interested in any information about them, particularly with regard to the experience working with the Topps company to make them happen.

Thank you!

That would have been an awesome trip. Am going through boxes and recently found a stack of 50-60 cards from 1990 for 1991 Spring training. It was for a trip for 4 people.

Never even heard of anyone winning one of the trips.

Best bet would be to dig through early issues of Topps magazine. 1/3 of their content was just self-promotion stuff like that. I'll flip through what I have and see if what I can find.
