Warren Buffet offered $1 billion

for a perfect NCAA bracket. Most everyone is probably already out. Who picked Ohio State and Cincinnati to loose their first games?{#emotions_dlg.confused1}

Me! Ha! When the selections were made UofD players were jumping up and down going crazy because they Wanted to face OSU. That is why I picked UofD! And they won{#emotions_dlg.thumbup}.

I also picked Harvard to been Cinci because Harvard isn't known for their basketball, and it seemed like a reasonable upset.

I picked Pittsburgh to beat Colorado too. I'm doing GREAT! I'm sure many of my picks will be losers though.

I love March Madness.

Yes they did! Great game!

I'm now at 80% right, which is still very good. I'm beating D!ck Vitale, Both Mike & Mike (espn morning show) sports analysts, Adrian Peterson, Colin Cowherd (espn sports news guy), BO and many others. I was texting my son last night and he couldn't believe it. Ha!

Chumlee, in several brackets I picked MSU to take it all too. Love this time of year!

The report this morning was that everyone has now been eliminated. However, the top 20 (I think) will each get $100,000. Not bad!

He actually insured this with one of his insurance companies.

It was a pretty safe bet, since NO ONE has ever had a perfect bracket in these type contests.
