Mar 27, 1939:
March Madness is born
The University of Oregon defeats The Ohio State University 46–33 on this day in 1939 to win the first-ever NCAA men’s basketball tournament. The Final Four, as the tournament became known, has grown exponentially in size and popularity since 1939. By 2005, college basketball had become the most popular sporting event among gamblers, after the Super Bowl. The majority of that betting takes place at tournament time, when Las Vegas, the internet and office pools around the country see action from sports enthusiasts and once-a-year gamblers alike.
And the madness continues...
60 minutes on the elliptical. Toying with a lunch workout at the gym as well. Maybe a stair climbing day. Or maybe not. Who knows...
Keep up the madness athletic peeps!
