Personal Narrative: March Madness

Decent Essays
My thoughts on March madness is nothing really at first I didn't even know what it was I had to just search it up and all I found out that it was basketball and it made more sense since were in March. I really don't pay attention to basketball I use to cheer for it but it was my least favorite sport to year on. I know some people don't like it because they say all you do is "dribble a ball back and fourth on the court and throw it into a basket." That's not why I don't like it though my reason is that I never really gave in interest in it I try watching it and I just get destracted in five minutes only time I really pay attention is when evryones quite while they do a free throw, rebound, or the bell rings due to times up.
