Crazy for Madness
So why do we love March Madness so much?
There is the excitement and energy exuded by the players, coaches and fans during the NCCA Tournament; the anticipation of which team will fall short on the road to the Final Four. It’s when the most unexpected teams falter to the most unexpected teams.
It’s the time of year when David will take down Goliath and a Cinderella team will be born. Undoubtedly, the NCAA Tournament is the most exciting event in collegiate competition. Check out some local hot spots where you can enjoy non-stop action any time of the day with special menu offers.
