Pick Which squares you want for the superbowl. Squares are 500 e$ a piece. Lets say max squares for any 1 person is 10 unless we have trouble selling them all.
-Tell me which squares you would like: Example: A5, C0, J6
-Send me 500 e$ for each
Once we are filled in (Or the night before the big game) I will randomly enter numbers along the top and side and then flip a coin for placing the teams as either X or Y.
If the score ends with your numbers: Example you have Team X 4 and Team Y 6
The score is Team X 14 Team Y 26 you would win.
If the squares all sell out we'll do this: (if it doesn't sell out we'll break it down the same way)
50,000 e$ total pot to be split:
30,000 e$ for the end of game Winner
12,500 e$ for the Half
3,750 e$ For the 1st and 3rd quarter
This is my first attempt at running one of these so be gentle, but I'm still open for suggestion or if I messup up how this is done.  Also, I made the board myself...yell at me if it looks silly.
I'll try to update the board when people make picks as much as possible, but try not to duplicate anyone's picks.

Its more luck than anything else, especially because you don't know what numbers are going where. If you knew that, you could try to pick numbers likely to come up - 3, 6, 7 and avoid things less likely to occur, like a 2 or 5. |
