2016 Happy Funtime Friends and Family Predictions Winner



In the closest competition to date, we have our 2016 winner......congratulations Janice T!!!  I tip my hat to the lady who beat me by a point.  Nice game.

And the winner of the 6th annual Margaret Walker Humanitarian Award is.....
once again, its namesake Margaret W.  While Margaret W. is no longer with us, her spirit of charity continues.  Since she has the longest run of not scoring (having never scored in this game.....seven years, not one point!), she wins hands down.
It should be known, when asked in late 2011 if she wanted to play the 2012 game, she said of her picks, "let them ride."  As long as she still has an intact 10 picks, we will continue to grant her wish.  This year, Margaret W's entry fee was graciously paid by our 2016 winner, Janice T, so that we can "let them ride" and try to win some money for charity.

2017 picks will be posted soon!
