The Eighth Annual Eric Brosterhous Memorial Masters Pool

Eric was a friend to all and connected with many of us over a variety of interests. He loved The Masters and ran a pool among friends for many years. In 2018, he was lucky enough to attend the tournament in person and delegated the administration of his pool to a poor sap stuck back in Portland. As many of you know, 2018 would be the last Masters of his lifetime.

One of many ways that we'll keep his memory alive is to continue his Masters pool for those of us who knew him as well as introducing him to those who weren't lucky enough to become his friend.

THE RULES:

• Everyone picks a team of 10 golfers by choosing one player from each carefully curated category
• Add your best 6 of 10 golfers scores each day to form your team score
• The best team score wins the pool
• Cut golfers (and anyone who doesn't finish four rounds) get the highest carded round for any rounds not completed (playoff holes do not count)
• Tiebreaker:
  • Predict the champion's final score at the end of four rounds (does not include playoff)
• All entries (link below) must be received before the first tee shots are struck on Thursday, April 9 (you can change or update picks as often as needed up until this time)
• Entries will only be added to leaderboard once they have been paid
• $32 fee per entry; must be received before the start of Saturday's round or your entry will be removed from the pool
  • Venmo funds to: @Jeff-Albright-97223 (last four digits of phone number: 8977)

• If you wish, add additional funds to your entry fee and they will be forwarded to the Eric J. Brosterhous Cancer foundation (along with "Eric's Cut": 32% of the total pot)

WHY IS THE ENTRY FEE $32? WHY IS 32% GOING TO ERIC'S FOUNDATION?

We lost Eric when he was 32 years old. When you hit "send" on your app, hopefully the number resonates and you think about how we lost a great guy too damned soon. We'd like to think the money will make an impact on someone else's life down the road. Regardless, this is one of many ways we'll remember Eric. Talk trash to your friends over their lousy selections, enjoy the Masters and be honored if you got the chance to meet him. If you're lucky enough to win, buy yourself something nice to remember the victory.
