The Stakes

In Munch Madness 2013, even the spectators have a chance to take home a trophy—made of dollars!
Disclaimer: Dollars not actually presented in the shape of a trophy.

There are a couple of different ways you can win. First, be sure to submit a bracket with your Munch Madness predictions before the deadline (assuming time travel capability on your part), in order to be eligible for any of the $50 prizes that will be awarded for the highest-scoring bracket after each of three rounds. In the event of a tie, a random prize winner will be drawn from those who share the highest score—but all highest-scoring bracketeers will be announced and awarded bragging rights.

Suppose you fill in a bracket and the votes don’t go your way. Don’t worry! You still have a chance to win just by voting each day in the Munch Madness polls. Each vote you cast is an entry for another $50 prize, awarded randomly at the end of the event to one eligible voter.
