The first round of Hotel Madness rolls along with a battle between #5 seed No airport shuttle and #12 seed One-ply toilet paper. In the NCAA basketball tournament, the 5-12 match-ups are always ripe for upsets and Hotel Madness may be no different. It's such a hassle when there's no airport shuttle. Having to pay for an expensive cab ride or navigating a foreign public transportation system just to get from the airport to your hotel can be a pain in the butt. However, once that's done, you never think about it again. Meanwhile, the strong #12 seed One-ply toilet paper rubs you the wrong way for the length of your trip, meaning it's an actual pain in your butt. It tears too soon as you're tugging at the roll, it rips as you wipe and it shows the hotel's blatant disregard for your behind.

Read more about these two tournament entrants below and then vote for the one that deserves to advance to the second round.

(5) No Airport Shuttle
Good news: you're not in a city that requires you to have your own car! No need to worry about parking, gas or drinking. All you need to do is get yourself to the hotel, get settled in and turn that town inside out. So, you'll just hop on the shuttle bus and be in that jacuzzi in no time, right? Yeah, about that bus. It doesn't exist. You can take a cab, though. Or public transportation. The hotel is just two bus transfers, six lightrail stops and a four mile walk from the airport. Easy enough for someone who's never been to this city. Also, public transportation stops at 11pm. Hope you have cab fare!

(12) One-Ply Toilet Paper
Travel wreaks havoc on your stomach. From the strange food to hours spent on airplanes, your GI tract just doesn't fire on all cylinders when you're away from home (or, if you're really unlucky, it fires on a few extra cylinders). When the time comes to use the bathroom in your hotel, you're already uncomfortable because you've lost your home toilet advantage. The last thing you need is toilet paper that you can see through. Amazingly, even the nicest "five star" hotels provide the cheapest, thinnest, one-ply toilet paper available. If you're hotel doesn't respect your butt then it doesn't respect you.

Are you more upset by the lack of airport transportation or thin, useless toilet paper? Will we see a classic upset of a #12 over a #5? Vote now!



First round voting ends at 11:59EDT on Sunday, March 20.
