Got Kentucky over Duke in finals 68-66... just thought id share. only filled out two brackets too and didnt fill any out brackets any other place. i never do good in brackets... do u win anything on ESPN?

    You'll get entered into a drawing if you finish in the top 1 or top 10 percent for 10k prize. It's all random or so they say after that. No official first place in espn it's stupid

    just read the prizes... top 1% of brackets get entered into a drawing... drawing winner gets 20,000 best buy gift card and trip to some CBB tournament. I think roughly 10,000,000 brackets entered so 100,000 entered in drawing, lmao...

    $20,000 Best Buy Giftcard? That's a lot of money to spend at one store....I would much rather have the cash....Good luck Stax man hope you get it

    I'm sure you could sell that for $18k. Maybe slightly less but am sure someone would pay you cash for it

    So even if you win the whole contest you still have pretty much no chance to win a prize.

    Granted they run these brackets more for people to do office pools.

    Some people enter 100 to 1,000 brackets into ESPN, picking every possibility.

    ESPN filters out these annoying twinks by doing the "random drawing" and checking IP addresses, etc.
