Super Bowl Pool Site

After years of operating an annoyingly inefficient annual squares contest that required countless emails, excel spreadsheets, and basic periodic website updates to post the latest grid boxes, I took it upon myself to spend hundreds of hours coding an entirely new approach -- a fully automated, self-service online grid contest system.

What became SBPS was initially intended simply to serve as the website interface for only one contest- my annual pool. After putting in all the work and making it function properly, I decided to open up the interface to anyone else who shared my frustrations, expecting maybe a couple of takers would come along on the ride with me.

Since its inception, SBPS has hosted tens of thousands of grid contests, providing entertainment for over a million participants. I still spend many hours a week, even during the offseason, improving the site per the requests of the user community.
