This year’s unpredictable NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament made for a great race to the finish of the Falls Church Times’ inaugural pick’em competition. Over 30 loyal Times readers joined the yahoo.com-run contest for a chance to win a $75 gift certificate to a City restaurant or a Falls Church Farmers Market gift basket.
When Duke and Butler tipped off in an unlikely finale this past Monday night the bracket winner was still in doubt. With a heart-wrenching Duke victory, City residents Daniel Butler and Dennis Zaenger—who both picked the Blue Devils to go all the way- leaped to the top of the leader board. The two tied for first place, but Mr. Butler won the tiebreaker because of his closer prediction of the final score of the game.
Had Butler upset Duke, Man About Town Columnist George Southern would’ve claimed the crown. Whew, that was a close one.
Thanks to all that participated and better luck next year. Click here to see the final standings of the competition.
