March 21 - Madness
Last year, I was a victim of Purdue losing the first round of March Madness. To what extent, you might ask? Oh. Well. I had them winning the entire tournament.
This meant that I essentially had about a 2% chance of winning the family bracket after round 1. And since Purdue had sabotaged me and my success, I spent all of last March Madness rooting for any and every underdog and just generally crossing my fingers for chaos.
This year, purely out of spite (and not at all because I actually know anything about the team), I have Purdue losing in the second round. Fool me once, Purdue.
Maybe this year I’ll have more to root for other than madness. Probably not, though. Stay tuned.
