As my friend ZL said, March is one of the best months of the year: It’s crawfish season, the weather is warming up, spring break is smack dab in the middle, and the rodeo is in town (I can’t believe I’m missing giant corn dogs, $10 concerts, and mutton busting this year). And of course, it’s the month of my favorite sporting event of the year- the NCAA tournament. Cinderella stories, upsets by schools you’ve never heard of, and nail-biting finishes, what’s not to love? Here’s a graphic that pretty much describes brackets this year thus far:
From a forum from one of my March Madness Brackets:
ZL: pretty sure i’m the only one who picked zona in the UA/UT matchup. go cats!
![]()
CH: i’m pretty sure you did =P we should have a little friendly side bet for that game
ZH: let’s do it! 1-on-6 bet. ideas? takers?
OF: z- let’s say winner takes the other person out for coffee or dessert the next time we are in the same city. GAMEON
ZL: boooooring! here was my original proposal – you win, i eat a pound of beef. i win, you guys each eat an ounce of cat. no takers.
second proposal – you win, i eat a pound of beef. i win, you guys split a can of cat food. still not really sure there are any takers…ha! OF? CH?
OF: no deal! you would eat a pound of beef regardless of whether your team won or lost.
…to be clear, no one agreed to eat any cats. Conditions still TBD for tomorrow’s game.


that diagram has pretty much summed up my feelings about this year’s march madness.
and tonights game..last minute..too hard to watch.
I am all over this post. I love it
I’m really, really sad that our bet was not finalized. imagine the hilarity that could have ensued! it’s not too late…
my roommate says it would have been like eating a tan of tuna. i’m not convinced.
DO IT!! and convince all the others to do it too. it’ll be classic. when we’re 99 “hey remember that time we ate cat food?”
