I will add that a local casino near me used to do a free football picks.
It was based on the selection of about 15 games. When they were short on games it would then have a question more or less than (example) 23 1/2 combined score.
They would skip the play offs and superbowl would be just a series of questions such as "who will win the coin toss" and "who will score first".
The pots were progressive every week and paid in real cash. If enough people won the pot it would then be at least $20. If two people got them all right and no one got the second place pot it would then be split between the first two. All pots won were divided evenly.
15/15 $1500
14/15 $1000
13/15 $500
In the 5 plus years I did this I did manage to get them all right. It was a year were Dallas beat the Gaints on a monday night football game mid december. It was because I am a football dumby and don't pick the favorites. I was trying to pick them that week going by a newspaper clipping and got frustrated trying to read them in the limited lit room and ended up picking 4 of them different and I ended up being the only one to get them all on a 3 week pot. I think it ended up being somewhere around 12 that had to split the second place pot.
