I was in Johannesburg before Christmas and I saw a competition there to win a Maserati at a cost of £75 a ticket, tickets were limited to 2500 and you had to do a similar entry to spot the ball. Nearest the centre wins the car..

Well I was in Gatwick Airport last week and they've got another competition there run by the same people to win and Aston Martin DB7 or a Lotus Elise. I was very tempted at the time but i had to catch a flight and didn't have time, I've found the details on the web and you can buy tickets on the web also.

I tried copying the picture you have to find the ball on and magifying it and looking for pixel distortion but my eyes went blurred after a while.

Have a look at the site and see for yourself, just missed out on the ferrari 360 modena competition.

O.M.

Based on the rules I may setup a business like this myself. No ball just a judge to guess where the ball "may have been". In the event of a tie the winners will have a share of £50,000. So for the Ferrari they collect £212,500 and probably pay out £50,000. Call me a cynic but this is a fantastic operation.
