    The Odds of Picking a Perfect Bracket

    Was watching ESPN lastnight and they gave the odds of actually picking a perfect bracket as:

    9,223,372,036,854,775,808 : 1
    That's 9 Quintillion....hell I ain't never heard of anything above a trillion...and that's 2 commas above that....

    ALSO, if EVERY man, woman, and child on earth filled out 1 millions brackets each, the odds of picking a perfect bracket would only be 1001 : 1...

    Translation for BP....it's picking a bracket not :boog:

          Guess thats why Sportsbook.com is giving out 25 million to the winner who has a perfect bracket.

              Actually, the people giving away big sums of money to anyone that picks a perfect bracket are actually insuring that gamble.... the only people really playing the odds are the insurance providers.
