August 2nd 2012 is a day that Tyrone Garvin will never forget. Tyrone was home during the day, gearing up to go to work for the New York City Transit where he is a train operator when his daughter was at camp. After a few rings of the doorbell and knocking on the door, we […]
People always ask me “What was your favorite ‘winning moment,’ or the funniest, or the weirdest?” Among the hundreds of Prize Patrol trips I’ve made it’s nigh impossible to select one or two stand-out winning moments. I tend to recall the visits that either produced the most dramatic video or the ones when we arrived […]

Hey, it’s me, Lucky Windfall, the famous Big Check from Publishers Clearing House. I know — it’s been a while since I came out of my envelope to write a blog. You have to remember I don’t sit around catching dust —I’m always on the move! Staffers don’t even wait for my ink to dry […]
Lots of people talk about having a “bucket list” these days. You know, that list of things they’ve always wanted to do but haven’t done yet? Made famous by the 2007 hit movie “The Bucket List,” it usually includes personal goals and cherished dreams, often put off till “the right time” comes along. You may […]
For the first time ever, Publishers Clearing House offered a contest where a lucky PCH Fan could win tickets to Atlanta to see the Prize Patrol on the game show Family Feud! Do YOU like the idea of this kind of new contest? Well our winner Danny Howell and his guest Brian sure did! I […]
