2023 Tournament of Art part 3
I'm a little late in posting this, as I kind of forgot about it. So better late than never.
My good luck ran out over this past weekend. I only had 3 teams alive in my brackets in the round of 8. Of course I am not the only one. As it was pointed out in the telecast, this was the first year since they began the current brackets that no #1 seeds made it to the Elite 8. The selection committee did a terrible job of assigning the seeds this year, as most of the expected high ranked teams were gone in the third round. I only had one team in my brackets left to be part of the fourth round- University of Connecticut, a #4 seed. The good news is that they won their game, quite handily, and moved on to the Final 4. The bad news is that I had them losing in the semi-final, so I am now done with my picks. I can't get any more points in the last 3 games.
It goes without saying, that all my art schools are gone now, too. I am close with some, but not actually in. For example, I have shown art in Miami, but not at the University of Miami. I have shown art and spent a week as the guest of the University of Texas, but at the branch in Arlington, which has its own team, and is not the one in the basketball tournament. I have shown art, been discussed, and my show written up in Princeton papers, but none of this occurred at the University, but at an unrelated Theological Seminary. One of those teams is still alive, but it is not one of my art schools, so it doesn't count. So I am done with this year's tournament. I still plan to watch it, but I no longer have a link to any of the schools.
