March Madness Fantasy Tournament - hosted by Travis O'Neil

March Madness is right around the corner! For those not in the know, March Madness is the NCAA college basketball tournament. 68 teams compete to be the NCAA champion in a one-and-done style bracket tournament. It is full of insane upsets, Cinderella teams, and just tons of basketball action. And this year, we’re making it a little more exciting for GumGummers.

Pre-COVID, Travis Oneil used to give out trophies and medals for Fantasy sports, but that’s lost some of its fun in a remote environment, so this year, we have some actual prizes we’ll be handing out.

  • 1st place will receive $100 to Ticketmaster for the sporting (or other) event of their choosing

  • 2nd place will receive $50 to Nike for some athletic wear (or athleisure if that’s more your speed)

  • And 3rd place will get this awesome door hoop or any equivalent item if this can’t be shipped to your area.

As with all of our Fantasy events, entry is free and open to all. All you need to do is create your own bracket by following this link.

Seeding for the tournament won’t happen until this Sunday, so you will need to actually fill out your bracket next week. If you don’t know anything about college basketball, honestly that might be an advantage. There will be between 15-20 upsets that will likely happen in the tournament. No one knows what will happen. Pick a color you like, or pick by each team’s mascots. They’re all viable strategies! Thanks, everyone!

Please let Travis know if any of you have questions or challenges with signing up! Also… for those wondering about the rest of the Fantasy sports in 2022, after a summer respite, next on the list is Fantasy Football (American) and Fantasy World Cup (non-American Football) this fall.
