The final matchups of the Sweet Sixteen round of the Blazer’s Edge Best Things Ever Tournament have arrived. For those who aren’t keeping up, we started a couple weeks ago with 64 good things in life, arranged in a March Madness-esque bracket. Each day we give you two posts with a choice between two things. You pick one to advance. In this quarter-bracket we’ve already lost Doughnuts, Cell Phones, The Beatles, Kittens, Chocolate, and Lord of the Rings, among other things. Another tough decision comes
up today.
In this post you get to choose between Books and Pizza.
Who doesn’t love the feel of a good book in their hands? No matter what the genre, there’s just something about flipping pages until you fall asleep…or even not being able to sleep because you just can’t put the story down. We all love movies, but it’s a general maxim that the book is always better, because it usually is! How many hours have been spent reading at the beach, in bed, on the couch, not to mention classrooms and libraries? Even though they’re being displaced by short-form internet content, books are still a treasure and a way of life.
But holy cheese-stretch, Batman! What about pizza? It’s one of the most versatile, and universal, meals ever. The smell, the feel, the toppings and dips. Just talking about it makes you hungry. It’s a runaway juggernaut in this tournament so far. Does this crust, sauce, and cheese concoction have another victory in it?
What’s your choice today, Books or Pizza? One will advance to the next round, one will say goodbye. Share your vote and your reasoning in the comments section and be sure to check out today’s other matchup plus the rest of the Sweet Sixteen posts down the site. Voting will close tomorrow and we’ll be on to the Elite Eight.
P.S. In case you’re wondering, here’s what the full bracket looks like so far.
