William Hare Wins NFFC Turkey Day Bonanza & $5,000

[Greg Ambrosius]

William Hare of Madeira Beach, Florida won the 2022 NFFC Turkey Day Bonanza on Thursday by the narrowest of margins. You could say that Bill won the $5,000 grand prize by a hair as he topped John Pathe by one-tenth of a point for the title. This was an incredibly close contest as William finished with 168.4 points and John finished with 168.3 points. Ryan Allan-Guenther finished third with 168.25 points. Wow.

We finished with a record 376 teams for this one-day contest and so prizes were increased to include the Top 30 finalists. Thanks everyone for participating in this fun one-day national contest and congrats to all of our prize winners. Hopefully this made Thanksgiving Day a little more enjoyable with these three NFL games.

We will return with another one of these one-day contests on Christmas Day for the NBA. Our NFBKC Christmas Day Jam will include all of that day's NBA games and will have a similar $100 entry fee and a $5,000 grand prize. Should be fun as we debut this one-day NFBKC contest.

Here's the final standings for our Turkey Day Bonanza, featuring the Top 100 teams:
