Selection Sunday: Behold our Game of Thrones Madness bracket!
By Corey Smith
Today is Selection Sunday, and if you’re through pouring over your bracket for the NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament, we have another bracket for you to dive into. We’ve seeded 64 of Game of Thrones’ most popular and infamous characters, and YOU will decide the winner. Check out the complete bracket below!
Who looks like they have an easy path to the championship? Who’s route looks the toughest? Ultimately, the fans will decide. Here’s how it works: each round, we’ll have a separate poll for every matchup. Simply vote for your favorite, and we’ll see who emerges victorious at the end of the tournament. We will open and close polls based on the following schedule:
Opening Round: March 21-22
Second Round: March 23-24
Sweet 16: March 28-29
Elite 8: March 30-31
Final Four: April 6
Championship: April 8
Personally, I’m rooting for Hot Pie to pull off a massive upset. The first round has some matchups that may force hard choices, though: Brienne vs Podrick, Tormund vs Hodor, Oberyn Martell vs Varys…and there’s the rematch we’ve all been waiting for since they first met in season 5: Tyrion vs. the c**k merchant. A throwdown for the ages, right there.
Rally your friends and prepare to vote! Throughout each round we’ll highlight some of the closer matchups on social media, so be sure to follow our Twitter and Facebook accounts to keep up! Thrones Madness is here!
