History of the KOTH
The King of
the Hill pool was started in 1998, with a mere 20 players. Four years later, we
had 10 times that many participating! In 1999 we had a lot of folks out early,
who needed another fix. So we launched a “Loser of the Week” pool in week 5-
basically another King of the Hill pool- same rules but with one twist: pick a LOSING
team! A win or tie and you are out. Missed picks get the Monday nite HOME team.
Every year
since, around week 5-8, we have fired up the Loser Pool. It’s not a requirement
to be eliminated from the KOTH (or even to have played) to get into the Loser
Pool.
