March Madness has arrived

Well March Madness has been kicked off in style. This weekend I headed down to AC on Friday night with Matt. Between 10pm Friday night and 3:30pm Saturday afternoon we logged about 11 hours of poker each, needless to say, eating and sleeping were optional!

We had to leave AC because we had tickets for the Allmans (my first of at least 4 shows this year). The setlist for the night was great:

The madness continued today - my men's league had our semi-finals match up tonight. One of our players hit a 35' 3 pointer at the buzzer to send the game to OT, and yours truly won the game in OT with a free throw with 2 seconds left on the clock! The commissioner called it the best game in league history.

The championship game is Thursday night, and then I have the Allmans back to back on Friday and Saturday.

And oh yeah, a little thing called the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament gets into full gear this week.

Come on, seriously, who does not think March is the greatest month ever!
