2023 Fiber Frenzy
When:
March 16 – April 3
What:
To coincide with NCAA March Madness, we decided to play a game ourselves! Although we skipped some Covid years, Fiber Frenzy is BACK!
Cost:
FREE!
Details:
On Saturday, February 25, the staff came together and drafted our teams. Where the NCAA has regions, Fiber Frenzy has staff members. Where the NCAA has teams, Fiber Frenzy has products. I narrowed down our products to 83 choices, and we went around the table choosing our products, ranking them 1-16. So there are 64 products aiming for the championship title. Following the schedule below, I will post polls in the facebook group (HERE) with each matchup, and anyone in the group (whether you filled out a bracket or not) can vote for their favorite product of the two. So products advance, just like teams, and there is eventually a champion. You do not need to know anything about or watch any basketball tournament to play.
Turn in the entire filled out bracket form to threadbenderinc@gmail.com before 11:59p, on Wednesday, March 15, either by scanning as a pdf or taking a photo. You can also bring a hard copy to the store before 4:00p on Wednesday, March 15.

Poll Winners:
The winners of each matchup will be chosen by you! Each designated day by 7am, I will post a number of polls in our facebook group HERE for anyone in the facebook group to cast their vote. If you're not in the group, just request to join! At 9pm that same designated day, the winning product(s) will be determined by the higher number of votes. If there is a tie, I will wait until the next vote comes in. You can vote in any or all of the polls!

Prizes:
Participants will be eligible to win a Grand Prize gift basket if the Fiber Frenzy Champion is chosen correctly on a brackets sheet submitted to us before 11:59p on March 15. If more than one person correctly chooses the Tournament Champion or if nobody correctly chooses the Tournament Champion, we will hold a drawing for the winning participant.
There will be other pop-up specials and prizes along the way, so be sure to like and follow us on facebook! And the staff member who drafted the winning product may or may not have a surprise in store as well.
Etc:
You do not have to be in our facebook group to participate, but you will not be able to vote unless you're in the group. Votes are tallied solely through facebook polls.
You do not have to know anything about basketball or watch any of the NCAA games to participate. This little game is just to have fun alongside the guys on the court and is completely separate.
Let's PLAY!
Product information:You can see most of the bracket products HERE. There are a few that aren't online yet, but I'm moving quickly! And, you'll see more than 64 products, because there are a bunch that have more than one option (i.e. Woolstok worsted comes in 50g hanks, 150g hanks, and bundles of minis).
