It was nine years ago, just after the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs bracket was complete that I thought it might be cool to do a The Simpsons Tapped Out bracket. Here we are nine years later, and it’s time for our tenth TSTO Addicts Bracket Battle!
Following a great Paris Summer Olympics, in which Canada set a record for most gold medals and most medals in a non-boycotted Summer Olympics, it’s time to think about all the different Olympic mascots The Simpsons has brought us. With that in mind, we present to you TSTO Addicts’ Favourite Olympic Mascot Bracket Battle.
Over the past 35+ seasons, we’ve seen many unnamed Olympic mascots:
However, we created a Bracket of 8 Olympic mascots specifically named in The Simpsons episodes from over the past 35 seasons.
All 8 mascots will battle each other in three rounds of head-to-head matchups, that we hope produces the most debate in the comments below. Every Saturday over summer, we’ll post that week’s matchups and your votes will determine which Olympic mascot advances to the next round, until we’ve crowned our “Favourite Olympic Mascot” on Saturday September 7th.
Quickly, some general housekeeping rules and guidelines:
– 8 Olympic mascots were selected.
– Weekly matchups will be posted on Saturday and voting will remain open for over 6 days until noon EDT the following Friday.
– The schedule of matchups is as follows:
o Saturday August 10th – Week 1 of Round 1 Quarterfinal matchups
o Saturday August 17th – Week 2 of Round 1 Quarterfinal matchups
o Saturday August 24th – The Round 2 Final Four Semifinals matchups
o Saturday August 31st – The Round 3 Championship Finals matchup
o Saturday September 7th – The winner is unveiled
After a month of voting and a few thousand votes, here are the final results from last weeks Championship matchup:
Springy (69.8%) defeated Sochi Fatov (30.2%)
