Eastern Illinois University student Brittany Kraft didn't have your typical spring break experience this year. The Elementary Education major inflated her pockets with 25-thousand dollars by winning the Second Annual Rock Paper Scissor College Championship at MTV's Spring Break in Acapulco, Mexico. Kraft says she was first introduced to rock, paper, scissors as a child, but admits that her spring break trip was the first time she had ever played the game on a competitive level. She states, quote, "I've definitely played since I was in grade school, but I never really took it to sport." Brittany Kraft describes rock, paper, scissors as a "mind game," explaining that she was able to win by anticipating what object her opponent was going to throw.Following her win, Kraft says she tried to keep her title a secret. Unfortunately, word of her success eventually spread and people are now challenging her on a regular basis to a game of rock, paper, scissors. Kraft doesn't mind the extra attention, however, as the 25-thousand dollars will pay off her student loans and give her a little extra savings in the bank.
