And the winner is….
Assassins.
It was a nail-biter, people. Sondheim took it by nine votes. Who would have thought puppets could put up such a fight?
Thanks for the fun, folks. It’s been a blast. We’ve learned a lot and had enough fun to want to do it again.
That’s right. We’ll be doing this over and over and over again over at Tournament of the Random. The first tournament will be Guilty Pleasures.
Four conferences (Food, Movies and TV, Music and Random Stuff) will duke it out for the title of Most Pleasurable Guilty Pleasure. And to make it more interesting, you’ll get to choose the competitors.
Starting next week, you’ll be able to leave a comment telling us your favorite guilty pleasures. We’ll thin and seed them and the tourney starts Monday, October 5. Also, let us know if you want to be one of our hardy analysts.
The battle has just begun.
See how Assassins was declared the ultimate winner right here.

You have absolutely no idea how much like the real NCAA Basketball Tournament this turned out to be. I lost in every bracket throughout the tournament, sometimes I didn’t pick a single correct contestant. Thank God we weren’t betting, or I would have lost my ass!
