Lauren from La Crescenta, California, says her 98-year-old grandfather uses a rather obscure saying. As a kid, if Lauren or her sister won a meaningless contest, he'd award them an imaginary prize he called the crocheted gidote. Or maybe that's gadoty, gadote, guhdody, or gadodie -- we've never seen the term before. Similar phrases include "You win the crocheted teapot" and "You win the crocheted bicycle," all suggesting winning a prize that's as useless as, say, a chocolate teapot. This is part of a complete episode.
