The random placing of balls continues until we find that one of boxes has been occupied $k$ times, $k\ge2$ (``birthday surprise''). The case of unlimited number of alternatives with unequal probabilities is discussed. Some exact and asymptotic formulas for the distribution of waiting time are given.
