March Madness 2012 Contest

[DU]

The Bracket has Been Made.

Here's a free contest - using the same names from the Indy 500 I have the following draw.

43 members - these were randomly assigned (using random.org) to the top 43 teams.

The remaining seeds 11-16 were then randomly assigned to 43 members.

Some NPers get TWO teams! Some get one.

100 NP for Winner

I'd like to thank everybody for my 2nd place finish, even tho I didn't play. I'd like to thank you for the NP in my account, the $50 somebody sent me via PayPal for picking Kansas. This goes right up there with my victory in the Hot Dog Eating Contest last year. I'm tearing up just typing this. Rock Chalk, Jayhawk

I have fond memories of JB winning the Hot Dawg contest last year

A win and a 2nd in one year is excellent!
