Did I really tie with my colleague?

I've heard I got a tie for first place at the restaurant for first place. I'm only gonna get $100. Last year, there was a tie as well. The votes were not counted in front of us. Hence, I'm not confident of the results. Although I am happy that I won as this year was my first Halloween dressing up. Not bad for a first timer. I don't trust the restaurant I work for.
