I managed to get a #6 seed. If you look at the number of entries, you can see why the seeds are the way they are. Few top seeds and millions of #15 and #16. Otherwise Coke would be giving away millions of freebies. I hope they took out insurance for a Cinderella story.

I think I got a #13 seed at some point. I'm just hoping to make it to enough entries to get a free t-shirt (16 to go!).

Not Much Hope

Remember, a team has to win TWO games before you get any prize, and even then it's only a free drink coupon. If you look at the history of the NCAA tournament over the past 30 years, I don't think Coke is taking much of a risk. The best value of this promotion is the free drink coupon for entering 4 Coke Zero caps. Second best is the free t-shirt for 24 caps. All of those prizes are in addition to the normal points that you earn.

I actually just got a 5 seed- the rest of my entries are all high double digits. I wonder if anyone really gets the 1 seed

I know they are notoriously slow shippers but I got an e-mail on Feb 28th saying my 20 oz coke zero coupon had shipped via fed ex. I've yet to see it, anyone else?
PS-- I have a shot at a couple of wins, I have a 7 seed, two 10 seed, a couple of 12's and a couple of 13's to go along with tons and tons of 15-16's that are worthless....

I believe that 'shipped from Fed-Ex' spiel is in every shipment status no matter what you are getting. Anyway the coupon will come VIA snail mail and no, I have not received mine either (shipped on 02/26)

Most teams only have to win one game. Round two is the field of 64 now. Round one is the play in games (teams 65-68).

Do you all save your caps for special promotions or enter them as you get them? I've got quite a few Powerade caps saved up and was wondering if I should keep saving them or just start entering them..

You're right -- my bad.

Keep saving them until that next promotion comes.

My Coke Reward Points [Master Thread]
 
I'm not sure of the lowest seed anybody has received for the EMM promo- but I just got seed 6C!!!!! I am super pumped. Only 470 6Cs are given out, while the next lowest is 8-'s at 1,250! Very excited. I hope this promo turns out better than the last.

Where do I go to find team 6C? I don't follow sports. Thanks!

Find the bracket here (amongst thousands of other places): http://espn.go.com/mens-college-bask...nament/bracket

Coke will assign which region is A, B, C, and D.

Thank you. 6C is actually UCLA. I would just like the final four prize of the round trip flight. Goooo UCLA!!

I have both UCLA and Minnesota, so I'm guaranteed to win that game!!!

I don't see any Wednesday deal today. Am I missing something, or did they quit doing that?
