Let the Madness BEGIN!!!!! Inside the head of a fan

Here I am at work, and like 85 000 + VIP NCAA fans and 132 000 + Regular fans I am waiting in my virtual line waiting to get into the site to watch the big dance. Now that a pretty darn long line up, potentially the longest in the world; until they do a similar thing with world cup soccer of course. I’m happy though; I am number 5711 in line, which I think is good. Its definitely better than waiting in line outside for something, or waiting in traffic line ups, or even air traffic line ups. I hate line ups, especially one’s I physically have to stand in. This line up is much better, log into the site, spend 10 mins trying to remember my password for VIP access and then let the computer line up for me while I try to get a days worth of work done so I can relax and watch the games.

Just as I feel like complaining I get in!!! Woo hooo the VIP pre registration sign up worked! I get to pick my game first. Defiantly wanting to watch Kansas making far so that I gain max points on my bracket. But the Georgia vs Xavier seems like it will be more entertaining. I notice as always they have a handy “boss” button. What can I say, the ppl who invented this have perfected it. Though maybe they might want to look into adding a couple of food delivery buttons especially for the first couple of rounds where games are all day. Ok so I have about 20 mins left before tip off, I am comfy in my seat. I need to make sure that I am well hydrated and fed. Of course I should probably go to the bathroom in a couple of mins…..Sports fans, basketball fans, and everyone who is bored at work….let the madness begin!
