    Default #1 Seed has never lost to a #16 Seed

    Hey guys/gals,

    I am not an NCAA capper, however according to Wikipedia:

    Nonetheless, despite the numerous instances of early-round Tournament upsets, including four instances of a #15 seed defeating a #2 seed, no #1 seed has ever lost in the first round to a #16 seed.

    Well, I never bet NCAA, so when I joined The Greek's March Madness Contest, if I happen to win any of the cash prizes and wanted to collect the full prize amount, I had to place a $25 pick. So, I placed that $25 on a #1 seed at -7000 to win and received a whopping $.36

    I got ta tell ya, my wife and I are having a blast watching all these games.
