Zimbio has a TV couples bracket with a Ross and Rachel Conference and a Sam and Diane Conference.
The One Ring had a bracket for characters from Lord of the Rings a couple of years ago. Best comments on the site: "It almost HAS to come down to a matchup between Gothmog the Balrog and William's Talking Purse. Am I right?" and "Say what you want about Sauron, but he was a job-creator - and an employee-creator."
Or from Chicago Inno, a very specialized bracket currently running to decide who is the best tech company of Chicago, with matchups like #1 Groupon vs. #16 Mobile Doorman and #4 Narrative Science vs. #13 Rippleshot. I'd probably have to go by the seeds on that one.
Last year, we highlighted the NPR vs PBS bracket run by WHYY in Philadelphia. In the final Mr. Rogers beat Peter Sagal to take home the trophy.
This year, for our younger demographic, we are highlighting 90's bands with UPROXX Sports' Most 90's Band March Madness Bracket. Here are the regions:
This is not exactly in my wheelhouse, so my voting would be somewhat arbitrary - like picking the third horse in the third race by the jockey colors. There are songs I like by Blues Traveler, Third Eye Blind, and BareNaked Ladies, but I couldn't give you a song from Collective Soul if my life depended on it, and they're a #2 seed. Voting has already begun - you can go here to vote if this moves you.
Or, you can watch a local Chicago group, The Five Stairsteps, on Soul Train with one of my favorite songs of all time. Enjoy.
