Analysis:
Frodo led all vote-getters in the Celebrity region, despite not being mislabeled as a “celebrity” when he’s really a movie character. What will Mr. T have to say about that next round?
Taylor Swift gets revenge on Kanye, but something tells me that this vote had little to do with justice, and everything to do with the fact that mostly males were voting.
Lil’ John just snuck by John Stamos in the narrowest battle of the entire first-round

The KFC Double Down made a statement and “banned” SnP’s Cheese Enchiladas from the tourney.

OH YEAH! Did you really think you could hold a mascot tournament without Randy Savage? The Macho Man has everything the Timberwolves need to land that #1 draft pick! I’ve got the costume! I’ve got the catch-phrase! I’ve got loads and loads of unintentional comedy! I am a tower of power that’s too sweet to be sour, and after a first-round bye I am forcing my way into this tournament to take on both Malibu and the Rock in a triple-threat match! Can you dig it? I’m gonna snap them like a Slim Jim. OH YEEEEEEEEEAH!!!!
