Sorry for the lateness. I was so busy focusing on the real tournament that I got kinda sidetracked. :lookaroun
Results tightened up in round 3, as the top attractions within each bracket made for an overall competitive round. Amazingly (to me), seven of the eight #1 seeds won their brackets. Now we'll see if the tough competition continues beyond the bracketed rounds.
The Studios became the first park to bite the dust this round, as all 3 of its remaining entrants were defeated. As we head to the quarterfinal round, Magic Kingdom has 5 of the final 8, Animal Kingdom has 2, and Epcot is represented by IllumiNations alone.
