I won one a while ago

How long ago? It was when Kansas played Oklahoma in the finals, Danny Manning vs. Stacy King. Been in a little drought since

I think I won like $1500 and back then, that was very good money

last time i won a big one was like '99 i think... have won a few smaller ones since then. Most I ever made was 2yrs ago in a calcutta, took Kansas and was planning to hedge with the points when they faced the hoyas, but ended up having to take pts with davidson and it worked even better.. also had wku and texas A+M

i used to run one in highschool, and just before the champ game, a "friend's" winning bracket would appear and we'd split the $$$.....did that a couple times

i've never won one, but my girl's won 2
