I agree that brackets and pools drive the interest more than traditional gambling.

however, the first weekend of the tournament is regarded by many people as the single best weekend in sports. what primarily drives the interest is the 12 straight hours of games, some of which includes buzzer beaters and upsets.

the college basketball tournament isn't bet nearly as heavily as the super bowl or college football playoff.

It almost has a holiday feel at work when March Madness comes around. Everyone has it going on their phones at their desks, lunches lasts longer, etc... It's a fun time.
