It's time for the craziness! Finally, March Madness has begun. I love how all Americans go mad about this event, along with the super bowl. No doubt, it is one of the biggest sporting event that takes place on Earth! While it's awesome to watch 64 teams competing with each other as hard as they could, organizing a bracket and betting on the tournament with a bunch of friends makes it even better. In mine, I chose Duke as the final winner, as the school has been maintaining its prestige as a highly potential team that can capture the glory.
However, a bad thing happened today. Duke had its first match against LeHigh, which is a small school located in Philadelphia or something, and was a 15th seed team. But something unimaginable happened. An upset has occurred in that match, in which LeHigh dominated duke throughout the game. As result, my bracket became hopeless because I won't be able to win more points since you get more points for predicting the right team as it gets closer to Sweet-Sixteen, Elite Eight and Final Four. So, I pretty much ended up losing my $5.
I guess the moral of the story is, just go by what the experts predict, not based on your intuition. Upset almost happens every time, and you don't want to lose money because you trust your inept instincts!
