HOG TALE MADNESS
As promised, here is the bracket to The Hog Tale's 1st Annual Arkansas Celebrity (and I use the word "celebrity" loosely) Tournament.
64 of the best, brightest, and baddest Arkansans to ever be born, live, play, or make some sort of mark on the state in the political or entertainment world (that are still living) are set and ready to battle it out.
Sure, I'm going to get emails and comments that say "You forgot (fill in the blank) you idiot! How could you forget (fill in the blank) jackass!" I also didn't put too much thought (a little, but not too much) into the seeding, so if you want to send me "why is so and so a 5 seed and so and so is a 12 seed?" feel free to do so. Just know that I probably won't try to defend the seeding, or the fact that it may be slightly Northwest Arkansas slanted, because it is what it is. I can live with it, and surely you can.
The voting will run every Monday - Sunday with two different ways to vote:
1. in the right column, you can vote in the polls that will be up beginning March 9th, or
2. you may email your votes into thehogtale@hotmail.com
1st round matchups will take place March 9th-15th and March 16th-22nd
2nd round matchups: March 23rd-March 29th
3rd round matchups: March 30th-April 5th
4th round matchups: April 6th-April 12th
