This contest has been so interesting -- and so hard -- that we've had 19 different overall champions in 19 years. NO ONE HAS EVER BEEN ABLE TO REPEAT AS CLASSIC NATIONAL CHAMPION!!! That says something.
Randy Mechels of Long, Prairie, Minnesota won the title last year and he's going to try to become the first back-to-back and 2-time NFFC Classic national champion. Let's start the games!!!

Last year was the first year for the NFFC Classic that we kept all of the prize money within the leagues. We raised the entry fee to $2,000 and paid the Top 3 in each league, including $16,000 to each league champion. We finished with 7 leagues and 98 teams in 2023 and we hope to repeat those numbers again this year. We'll award a FREE 2024 NFFC Classic entry to the overall champion.
Here's the rules page for the NFFC Classic:

We likely will have only six or seven Classic leagues this year and two of them will be live in Las Vegas, so let's consolidate into the other Classic Online leagues and have some fun this year. The $16,000 league prize is appealing, but it's not easy to win in a 14-team league. Only the BEST will survive in this format.
The Top 3 teams in each league earn prize money and will advance to the Championship Round. We'll then compete in Weeks 15-17 for the coveted title of NFFC Classic overall champion. Will we be crowning a 20th new champion or our first two-time champion?
Okay, let's get more folks into this great contest. Through Sunday, we'll keep the Early Bird Special going. If you sign up before Monday, August 14th, we'll give you $100 off for every Classic team. Just use promo code:
