Philanthropic Ringer of the Day

Using physics, geometry, and engineering smarts, 64-year-old Peter Drakos has amassed more than 250,000 prizes from carnivals across the U.S. -- so many, in fact, that most midways have limited the number of prizes any one person can win at a time.

"I don't want to say it's all because of me, but it's all because of me," Drakos says.

But he isn't in it for the stuffed animals, or even the thrill of the game.

Everything he wins, he donates to kids: "Sometimes it brings tears to your eyes because you know that they're really happy," Drakos says.

Awww.
