Title: How's your bracket?
Post by Lobster on Mar 18^th, 2007, 9:30pm

In a different kind of March Madness pool here in my new hometown.
About 50 guys get together to bid on teams.
For example, the 16 seeds all went for $10-$30.
The #1 seeds went for $300-500.

If your team beats another team, you get 90% of what they sold for. The remainder goes to the house (the KoCs in this case).

Two friends & I spent about $600 on 4 teams...
Virginia Tech
Butler
Georgetown
USC

Pretty happy right now. All but Virginia Tech made it to the Sweet 16, and all made it past the first round. A bit better than even right now. Anything from here out is profit. ;;D

My paper picks are both shot... pretty much worthless.

Sounds like it makes for some on-edge viewing.

and noticing how many damn commercial breaks there are sweating the last two minutes. ;)
