The 2015 NCAA March Madness Brackets have been posted. The play-in round games are tonight (I’m actually watching them as I type!) And I’m definitely in the spirit for basketball!!!
And for a contest!
No, it’s not a bracket challenge. No basketball knowledge is required. This is all about picking those lucky cinderella teams with a double digit seed (seeded 10-16) that make it to the Sweet Sixteen. You know, the teams that are impossible to predict but oh-so-fun when you guess the right one!
Here are the details.
To enter this completely free challenge, you have to be on my email list.
Not yet a member? Sign up right here! You’ll receive the email shortly after you sign up.
All you have to do is reply to my Contest Announcement email (sent on March 14th) with your 3 answers by 12:15pm EST on Thursday, March 19, 2015.
Missed this email? Just send me a quick email [info@bookthisproject.com] and I’ll get you squared away!
In your email reply, you need to let me know:
1. What 4 teams do you think will make it to the Final Four?
(You’ll get 1 point for each team that makes it to the Final Four, up to a total of 4 points)
2. Who are your Cinderella teams? List two double digit seeded team you think will play a Sweet 16 game.
(You’ll get 2 points for each Cinderella team (a double digit seeded team) you selected who makes it to the Sweet 16.)
3. What is the point score of the winning team on Championship night?
(This is the tie-breaker question.)
The person with the most points (maximum 8 points) wins.
(If there is a tie, I’ll use the tie break score (#3) to select the winner. The closest winning score without going over, wins my challenge. )
The prize: $50 Amazon Gift Card.
I’ll announce the winner in my April 11, 2015 email.
