Muppet Madness (Round Two)

@Freudian Slit

I don’t know why they called him Crazy Herry. He seemed perfectly reasonable to me. Now Grover…there was an irrational fellow.

I’m sure Homeland Security would agree with you that setting off explosives at random is calm, ordinary behavior.

Herry did that?!

Round Two of Muppet Madness is now complete. I will post the brackets for Round Three before I go to bed. Some notes on Round Two:

• Several down-to-the-wire matchups this time; I had to cast two tie-breaker votes, and a third match was decided by only two votes.

• Elmo was crushed like a bug.

• No Muppet seeded worse than #6 is still in the tourney, and of the 12 Muppets seeded #1, #2 or #3, only Elmo is gone.

• The most lopsided contest was Statler/Waldorf 44, Scooter 3, but after further consideration I’m awarding the victory to Scooter. I mean, his uncle does own the theater.

• No, not really.

Here are the full results:
