While sitting at home recovering from my recent neck surgery I had plenty of time to watch the NCAA Basketball Tournament (AKA March Madness, AKA Crap Shoot). To occupy some of my time I entered some of the big (free, non-gambling, for entertainment purposes only) online bracket challenges. The ESPN Mike and Mike tournament challenge had roughly 500,000 entrants (actual number unknown because it stops counting at 400,000+). Here are my results:
| RANK | R64 | R32 | S16 | E8 | F4 | NCG | CHAMPION | TOTAL | PCT | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2,281 | 260 | 180 | 200 | 160 | 320 | 320 | UNC | 1440 | 99.5 |
Just sayin'.
