Here comes that magical time of the year, where dreams of many will become reality as they see and root for their favorite team onto the big stage–the Champtionship; while some people will experience the exact opposite: getting their hopes and dreams crushed… Thanks to those Cinderella Teams.

Also, you will see some luky person running naked around, in joy and pure ecstasy… why you might ask? well, one reason could be because they just won 1 Million Dollars!

Thanks to sites like fox-sports and such others, if you can get your bracket just right, and if luck be with you, you just might be that lucky fan. So, don’t be surprise if you see someone doing what’s described above.I, for one, have not participated in the $1 million bracket challenge: what a bone-headed move! Rest assured, I won’t be winning 1 million in bracket challenge this year. Had I at least given it a try, I had a shot… albeit a small one, but a probability existed none the less…. now, the probability of me winning the 1 million in bracket challenge is 0%. Oh well! I will make sure that I do not repeat this mistake next year.

That being said, I have participated in a bracket challenge at my University. As of 10:00 PM Eastern Std. Time, I was in the 2nd place:

NCAA Bracket Challenge -- Pool @ my University

In case you are wondering, here’s my bracket:

Who didn’t want to witness history?

Some travelled from very far, just to say (to their children/grand children etc) that they were “there” when the history was made. Unfortunately, I cannot say that. I was stuck here, in connecticut–at the University of Connecticut (if you really cared to know). However, I didn’t want to be someone who completely missed out on this historical event! When my children (probably 5-10 years down the road)–or anyone for that matter–were to ask me “So, where were you when the History was made?” I dont want to say, “I was busy” or “Working on some project” or “Reading articles on Wikipedia / Checking out Digg”

So, I made up my mind… if I physically cannot be there in Washington, I will be there “remotely” ;)
