I will have all of that and more invested. I also put one in the mail room at our school. You know, real easy $2 bucks a square, 100 squares. Do you know how incredibly tough it is to get some teachers to buy a few squares?
I mean after all it is $4 to buy two sqaures. Thank goodness for the cafeteria ladies, custodians and the office workers, otherwise it would never get filled.

As of this post, got 8 left on two $5.00 boards.....those "county" employees just love to gamble, even though we don't earn a lot!

Soxfan,
Use two numbers per square. You only need to sell 25 blocks so you can raise the per block cost.

You make a grid with five boxes across and five boxes down. Each block has 2#.
This is the only way we could get a weekly poll going in a smaller office. The odds you get 2 crappy #'s in a block is greatly reduced which cuts down on the cronic bitching.

Good Idea King! Thanks.

There are valuable economic lessons to be learned through Super Bowl boxes and by following the money line and the spread. It's never to early for these lessons.

I think you are on to something Cardus. Afterall I do Punnett Squares when I teach about traits, so why not Super Bowl Squares.
