Hall of Fame: Wide Open Bracket – Round of 64

Welcome to the Inaugural Jivewater News Hall of Fame Induction Competition

Wide Open Bracket – Round of 64

Over the next few weeks, you, the reader, will vote to find four deserving entrants into the Jivewater News Hall of Fame. In all, we have 64 entrants, ranging from articles, to characters, to inanimate objects that have all been seeded based on what we believe are the strongest candidates to enter the Hall of Fame, but you the reader will decide who is worthy. This is set up exactly like the NCAA basketball tournament, so lose before the Jive 4 and the candidate will fail to reach the Hall. To start, we’ll reveal 8 matchups at a time with a vote period of a couple days, until the first round is complete. Then we’ll go from there until the entrants are chosen. Happy voting, and may the best candidates get enshrined! Read on to start voting…

#1 Hundreds of Newsoms residents to be without reefer this weekend vs. #16 Chester Hardy turned down for coaching job

In this battle, Chester Hardy, our 16 seed, seeded after how old he likes his women takes on Goliath that went Soco-viral. Good luck Mr. Hardy.

#8 Dynamic Duo: 2, Escaped Inmates: 0 vs. #9 Local Man Organizes Cornhole Event for the Cure

Trooper Moe Parr makes up ½ of the 4 legged suspect tracking machine known as the Dynamic Duo, meaning Cornholing will have to bring it’s A game if it wants to get past the Gators, quicksand pits, and most importantly Moe Parr!

#4 Franklin Officials apologize for Parade Mixup vs. #13 Yaksummore debates, well himself (sort of) as election looms

Two epic events that marred Franklin history will square off in this one. Will the Golden holograms prevail over the shirtless, red umbro wearing Santas?

 {mijopolls 35}

#5 Carl Thomas vs. #12 Franklin woman gets probation for Wal-Mart twerkin’

He’s a Boykins institution, Schlitz enthusiast, indiscernible store-front philosopher and admittedly a lover of a good twerkin’, but will his soft spot for the Booty shake leave him vulnerable to an uspet as he goes up against a good Walmart Twerkin’?

 {mijopolls 36}

#6 Tensions Run High as Tropical Storm Rages vs. #11 Butt Pirates win Homo-Regatta

It’s the Pontoon special! Will it be a bunch of men sailing around in empty beer cans trying to save all the local honeys in distress, or will it be a motley crew of Gay pirates floating around in cardboard box trying to save each other? You decide!

 {mijopolls 37}

#3 North Carolina Driver Protest results in 45-Car Pileup vs. #14 Drag wearing Grandpa

Will the controversial law be popular enough to stop a 65 year old Grandpa wearing a bustier?

 {mijopolls 38}

#7 Fancy retires after 2 years, mother finally moves her Uptown vs. #10 Taylor Swift makes pit stop at Franklin gas station

One has talent, one doesn’t. One knows how to bow out gracefully, another keeps making more and more shit. Here’s your one chance Fancy don’t let me down!

#2 Trooper Johnson forms Dynamic Duo to Apprehend Escaped Inmate vs. #15 Children living in poverty expected to step up

This Southampton County version of Zero Dark Thirty tells the tale of an at large fugitive who succumbed to the Dynamic Duo, will this gripping article be strong enough to defeat kids rising themselves up and getting to work? Probably.
