Limited to 1 per household. So don't even try and fill out 9.2 quintillion brackets on your own.

I don't know whether to be excited or horrified by the realization of what some people could do with 1 billion dollars.


If I win, Jerryworld won't have shite on Davis-Wade.

Not me. Don't need the higher tax bracket.

Nope. And just to be sure, I just won't fill out a bracket this year.

Don't want to accidently win the thing.

If everyone in the US filled out a bracket, this prize might be won about every 4 centuries.

If it was completely random, yes, but it isn't completely random.

I don't need another billion, but if he twists my arm I guess I would take it and spends some on hookers and blow

players/coaches should just get together and draw a bracket that they like... It's only ~ 1000 people, so everyone gets 1 million a piece. Not bad.

I adjusted a bit for that.
And by "I" I mean a statistician who looked at it.

I hope y'all know that cocaine is an illegal and dangerous narcotic, and prostitution is also illegal.

Easy. Take the money up front. Invest at least $100M of the initial $500M and hope for an average rate of return of 8% over 25 years and you will have ~1.01B in 25 years with the benefit of having the additional $400M day one.
