Another ad I'm getting. Looks like a dish towel that someone made a dress out of:

As a curmudgeon about brackets, I've been fighting the urge to hit "like" everytime someone's bracket blows up.
Love the tournament, I hate all the bracket crap, like anyone should care or hear about who you picked. There needs to be a bracket-free thread somewhere.

A question for the mathematically gifted on RTT (and an apology to @CycloneErik): What is the possible number of ways to fill out a 64 team bracket?

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the odds of picking a 100% correct bracket are higher than those of winning the Powerball. Heck, just the first round games would have thousands (or more) of options!

9,223,372,036,854,775,808 different combinations if I remember correctly (2^63).

People win Powerball a couple of times a year. I don't know if anyone has ever had a perfect bracket (at least that is verifiable).
