A group of folks are doing a bracket challenge that's also a charity fund raiser.

Whoever scores the highest wins half the money.
Whoever scores the lowest chooses a charity to send the other half.

$5 entry fee. If we can get 100 participants then that's $250 in someone's pocket and $250 going to charity (I'll be pushing hard for the Jimmy V Foundation).

I'm the one who will be sending the money in so I'll make sure everything is legit.

There's a big group of people already paid in who aren't from TWW or in the facebook group. We're definitely going to hit 50 (so at least a $125 payout) but I'm really hoping to get 100.

Unfortunately nowhere near as big as I had hoped, but there's still $40 up for grabs.

There's a non-TWWer who has Kansas, he's currently in 3rd place but close enough that he could pass you.
