CableTV.com wants you to join its first-ever March Madness bracket challenge

The NCAA Tournament is one of the marquee events in all of sports and proves every year that, truly, anything can happen. It’s also become synonymous with fans filling out their own brackets for fun, for money, and to prove that they know ball.

This year, CableTV.com is giving college basketball fans a unique opportunity to not only secure bragging rights among friends but also win a nice chunk of change in the process.

By joining our official ESPN Bracket Challenge Group and filling out a bracket, fans have a chance of winning a grand prize of $500. The bracket with the most points at the end of the NCAA Tournament wins.

“CableTV.com is known for entertainment, sports, and legendary giveaways,” said Craig Stirland, the digital public relations specialist at CableTV.com. “Our team loves the tournament, so we wanted to give our followers a chance to have fun and compete for a nice payday.”

In addition to the cash prize, CableTV.com is giving fans multiple opportunities via its social media accounts to win gift cards for Homefield merchandise.
