In 2005 Washington's Christine Gregoire bet Montana's Brian Schweitzer a box of Fuji apples that her No. 1-seeded Washington Huskies would beat his 16th-seeded Montana Grizzlies. Gregoire won eight rib steaks.

I mean, when was that ever a good idea? xoopsx

Exactly. The gov would have looked bad had he turned down the bet. xnodx

The griz were a good team that year, and UW was by far the most vulnerable #1 seed, so not that dumb a bet. Eventually a 16 will beat a 1, it's just a matter of when.
