A prize is an award to be given to a person, a group of people, or organization to recognise and reward actions or achievements. Official prizes often involve monetary rewards as well as the fame that comes with them. Some prizes are also associated with extravagant awarding ceremonies, such as the Academy Awards.
Prizes are also given to publicize noteworthy or exemplary behaviour, and to provide incentives for improved outcomes and competitive efforts. In general, prizes are regarded in a positive light, and their winners are admired. However, many prizes, especially the more famous ones, have often caused controversy and jealousy.
Specific types of prizes include:
The Nobel Prize (Swedish pronunciation: [nʊˈbɛl], Swedish definite form, singular: Nobelpriset; Norwegian: Nobelprisen) is a set of annual international awards bestowed in a number of categories by Swedish and Norwegian committees in recognition of academic, cultural and/or scientific advances.
The will of the Swedish inventor Alfred Nobel established the prizes in 1895. The prizes in Chemistry, Literature, Peace, Physics, and Physiology or Medicine were first awarded in 1901. The related Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences was established by Sweden's central bank in 1968. Medals made before 1980 were struck in 23 carat gold, and later from 18 carat green gold plated with a 24 carat gold coating. Between 1901 and 2015, the Nobel Prizes and the Prize in Economic Sciences were awarded 573 times to 900 people and organizations. With some receiving the Nobel Prize more than once, this makes a total of 870 individuals (822 men and 48 women) and 23 organizations.
The prize ceremonies take place annually in Stockholm, Sweden, except for the peace prize which is held in Oslo, Norway and each recipient, or laureate, receives a gold medal, a diploma and a sum of money that has been decided by the Nobel Foundation. (As of 2012, each prize was worth SEK8 million or about US$1.2 million, €0.93 million or £0.6 million.) The Nobel Prize is widely regarded as the most prestigious award available in the fields of literature, medicine, physics, chemistry, peace, and economics.

Plot: Dalton's not the type of guy you're likely to remember. Quiet and unobtrusive, he's invisible to everyone at work and run over by his mother and sister at home. But all that changes when a street kid living behind Dalton's dumpster gives Dalton a mysterious pouch. Now, Dalton walks with a new confidence and strange peace. The alluring contents of his pouch bring him more attention than he's ever had - or possibly wanted. Dalton is alternately sought after and reviled by all who surround him, and he's starting to feel uncomfortable about it. When his secret ultimately leads to disaster, he breaks. With his prize turning out to be nothing but a curse, Dalton frantically searches for the kid who gave it to him. But the one person who can lift his burden has disappeared. Broken and alone, Dalton is left to choose for himself: Is his strange reward worth the price he has to pay?

May's prize random
Well, we were talking and we were drinking
Letting the fat flow go
And we were asking and we were thinking
In the belly of a bar
It was easy almost indifferent
Until my heckles rise
What's that you're asking if I remember?
The pub walls are dissolving
The guilt was thin then, his hair long
Brown to match his eyes
It's none of your business what his name was
Would I even get a prize?
There's been a hundred and that's not boasting
Just the ways of this world
How dare he even ask this?
These pub walls are drowning
Your glass is empty just like your heard
It's these times I don't know you
And how about you can you remember?
You shake your head and say, "Drunk"
It's a small thing, why am I angry?
These words are signs of warning
Because behind them there's the implication
The pub is burning down
So do I get a prize for remembering that first time?
