Welcome to the Cyclone Fanatic Stand-Up Tournament Selection Show.

This may have been the toughest one yet to put together. What people find funny is incredibly subjective. Along with poll that represented the CF public's top 64 there were 7 committee members who submitted lists.

Among the total 8 lists each one was very different from the next. Only 9 comedians made all 8 lists and 7 made 7 of 8 lists.

A total of 179 total nominations were considered for the 64 slots.

Tournament voting will begin starting Thursday and this tournament will feature a CF Bracket Challenge. More on that later in a separate thread. Instead of having a separate thread and poll for every "game," each round will have a separate thread. Additional details about the process will be included with each round's thread.

And now, on the the bracket reveal...

Greg Gumbel Rulzzz here, we will start off with announcing the 4 #1 seeds from top overall to 4th overall and then go region by region starting with the top overall seed. Each 1 seed's region name will be a famous comedy place.


The top overall seed is George Carlin and is 1 seed in the The Comedy Store region. The next #1 is Richard Pryor in The Second City Region. Dave Chappelle is the next #1 in the Comedy Cellar Region and rounding out the 1 seeds is Eddie Murphy in The Funny Bone region.
