By the end, it was a war of attrition. Nobody from our fine country club picked Kentucky or UConn in the final game, mainly because we are much too sane for that kind of nonsense.
Congrats to John Martin, the winner of the free club wide pool and the grand prize of a $100 gift card for food or golf. If you are looking for somebody to buy you a round, he’ll be in the club waiting I’m sure.
Over in the cash pool the grand prize came down to tiebreakers with Sim Buckley emerging victorious after a low scoring final game. He also takes home the dubious title of “Best Bracket In Spite Of Picking Duke To Be In The Final Four” along with his $200 prize.
Country Club Jeopardy time.
Answer: John Martin, Pat Doyle, and Brian Burroughs
Question: Who are the 3 people better at picking brackets than you and still alive for the $100 gift card, Alex?
Congrats, guys. It all comes down to the Florida game Saturday and then possibly tie breakers.
Over in the $20 buy-in pool we have a crazier situation, where if Florida loses on Saturday AND Wisconsin wins then dark horse Shari will catapult from the middle of the pack into the winners circle. Any other result would lead to Sim Buckley and Brian Burroughs deciding the winner with a three legged sack race down hole #7 fairway. Or the points tiebreaker if they want something less funny to watch.
So both of the pools come down to the games Saturday night. We’ll see you in the 19th hole tomorrow night with your Wisconsin or Florida foam fingers rooting on your brackets to victory!

The second pool is $20 per entry with a max of 5 entries per person. 100% of the money will go towards the winners and we’ll announce payouts once we get all the entries.

You can join today and all brackets MUST be completed by Thursday Mar 20 at game time. Win that food, win that money, win that billion! Just don’t forget to wave to the rest of us on your way to the bank. Any questions, please contact Tai at tech@fgacc.com.
