USF CU Ramen Winners

USF Credit Union’s first-ever “Ramen Riches” contest has officially wrapped - and yes, we really gave away a full year’s worth of ramen to USF students who all showed creativity, personality, and energy in their entries!

The USF CU team - carrying giant clear bags of Ramen around the University of South Florida - recently surprised the first winner right on campus!

Winner #1: The Sorority With 25 Hungry Housemates

Anna submitted a photo on behalf of her entire sorority and she didn’t hold back.

Her entry declared: “We have 25 hungry house girls who already eat ramen every night!” with a photo to prove it (pictured).

A whole house of students united by noodles? That’s…epic! Enjoy the Ramen!

Winner #2: Pedro - Marshall Center Branch Regular!

Our second winner, Pedro, has been working beside our campus branch for two years - literally seeing USF CU at Marshall Student Center every time he clocks in.

His entry was simple but perfect: “Been working right in front of the credit union for the past 2 years!”

Well, Pedro, it’s your time. Enjoy a year’s worth of Ramen on us!

Winner #3: Gabbi - Who Took a Chance After a Rocky Run-In

And finally, congratulations to Gabbi!

When we visited a class to announce the contest, Gabbi happened to be there.

Later that day, she randomly bumped into Rocky during a walk on campus and her one-liner entry followed: “I randomly ran into Rocky… so it must be a sign!”

Huge Congrats to Our First-Ever Ramen Riches Winners

Our winning Bulls brought humor and heart to this first-of-its-kind contest - and now, they’re all enjoying the most stocked pantry on campus.

Thank you to everyone who participated, snapped selfies, got creative, and cheered on friends. You made our first Ramen Riches Contest a success.

Stay tuned… we’re just getting started.

Oh, and if you’re not a member, it’s easy to join. We’re Better Banking for All - including Bulls who live on noodles.
