March Madness Brackets at the Roadhouse! 🏀🍻
Year TWO of Virginia running the brackets — and after last year’s solid turnout (even with that lovely Nebraska snowstorm trying to ruin our fun ❄️🙄), we’re ready to run it back and make it even bigger this year!
Here’s how it works:
• $10 per bracket – ALL cash paid back!
• Payouts: Virginia will decide final payout percentages once we see how many brackets we get, but 1st place will get at least 60%. Top THREE brackets get paid.
• Scoring:
– 1 point for Round 1
– 2 points for Round 2
– 4 points for Sweet 16
– 8 points for Elite 8
– 16 points for Final Four
– 32 points for picking the Champ 🏆
• Tiebreaker: Predict the final score of the championship game. If you don’t write a score, your default guess is 0–0… and we all know that’s not winning anything.
• Brackets must be submitted AND paid before the first game tips off.
• Options:
– Fill out a paper bracket at the Roadhouse and pay whichever bartender is working.
– Or send a photo of your bracket directly to Virginia and Venmo her.
Bracket updates will be posted on Facebook at the end of each round so you can keep track of how you’re stacking up.
Important reminder: Your bracket must be readable. If it’s not, Virginia will do her absolute best to “interpret” your handwriting… and somehow those interpretations may favor her own bracket. Funny how that works. 😉
Let’s hope Mother Nature stays out of it this year, get those brackets filled out, and see who’s taking home the cash! 🍻🏀
