March Madness is here, which means tournament pools are too! As this is a blog that specifically appeals to people who like to watch & bet on real-life elimination challenges, I wanted to take this opportunity to advertise for the tournament pool that I do. It fits well with this season of Survivor's theme of Redemption. Originally invented by Danny Fahey of Norwich, VT, this basketball pool format became so popular that we had to have a Pickett family spin-off to actually give ourselves a chance to win!
In our pool you don't have to pick the entire tournament ahead of time - we do it by weekend. So even if you guess ALL the wrong teams the first weekend, you still have a chance at redemption (and getting your money back) in weeks 2 and 3. 1st week you pick the winners, 2nd week you pick winners & their margin of victory, and for the 3rd week you pick winners & the final scores. It's $6 per weekend, and participating in all 3 weekends is optional.
The pool is open to any and all, whether you're related to me or not. Our very own Survivor-poolist, Sir Baggage Claim, was the overall money winner last year, and has big plans to defend his title. If you would like to get in on the action & try to take on the reigning champ, let me know! I'll send you all the info you need. Deadline to submit picks for Weekend #1 is Thursday by tip-off, so please get back to me soon!
Go Duke! To hell with Carolina!
