Tournament of Randomocity
March Madness is upon us so I am attempting to have my own tournament.
There are 64 entrants and four brackets just like the NCAA tournament but only this contest isn't predetermined by ESPN or the mafia.
The brackets are: Animals, Bands, Movie Badasses, and Random. I didn't have the patience to create my own bracket so what I have will make do. You will be able to vote as many times as you like. In this entry I will only have the first round of two brackets, the animal and band brackets. Then later this week I will post the other two brackets and next week, depending on voting, we will move on to the second round and the round-table discussion will begin.
Now for the Animal Bracket Match-Ups(if your favorite animal isn't listed or you don't like the pairings, complain here)
#1 Black Mamba vs #16 Titmouse
Animal Bracket 1vs16
#8 Tiger vs #9 Lion
#4 Scorpion vs #13 Kangaroo
#5 Wolf vs #12 Koala
#2 Grizzly Bear vs #15 Deer
#7 Cat vs #10 Dog Animal Bracket 7vs10
#3 Eagle vs #14 Beaver
#6 Warthog vs #11 Penguin Animal Bracket 6vs11
Band Bracket(These match-ups came from me pressing shuffle on my juke-box
#1 Pink Floyd vs #16 Bananarama
#8 The Rolling Stones vs #9 Led Zeppelin
#4 Weezer vs #13 Dead Kennedys
#5 Radiohead vs #12 ZZ Top Band Bracket 5vs12
#2 The Beatles vs #15 Starland Vocal Band
#7 Phish vs #10 The Flaming Lips
#3 The Beach Boys vs #14 Pantera
#6 The Doors vs #11 Wilco
Make sure you vote and vote often! Sorry if your inbox is going mad with these entries, I am having a hard time editing.

It took me forever to get this to work. Somehow the script code didn't work and I had to copy and paste to a word doc and then I was able to get the links...I hope people vote...Thanks for the recommend.
This is awesome fun!
@EveryRoadisanOption -
thanks, stayed tuned for the other brackets and round-table discussion.
Huh?

Just a tournament of random match-ups.
@godfatherofgreenbay - I see.....I've been texting you lately. I have a new number, just in case you didn't recognize who was texting you.

OK, I possibly ahve my phone on silent so I will have to go check.
I was confused about this at first. I was like where are the words!? I don't know who most of those bands are or have never listened to them so no voting. Are we supposed to choose who we like better or who would win in combat? Hi Matt!
@TiRocKiinPiinK -
You just pick who you think would win. My music taste tends to lean more to the rock side or at least in the cds that I buy.
Sorry, it is confusing. It took me forever to get the links to work so I will use better wording in the next part of the first round.
@godfatherofgreenbay -
Nah, I think I was just a little slow. Then when I looked at the voting results I wasn't sure if I was doing it right. I was like well duh, but then people proved my thoughts wrong!
I can't believe the Doors are losing to a band I haven't even heard of before. This is bullcrap!!
@CanadianConspiracy -
That happened last year on this blog that had a 500+ band tournament like this. I think Fall Out Boy ended up winning the whole thing which was very disappointing. I can always determine the outcome, but I think I have a rabid Wilco fan visiting my site. Not a bad band. They had a song and album cover that may have prophesied 9/11
