March Madness a la King

There's only one better way to watch the NCAA Basketball Tournament than comfortably seated in a Las Vegas sports book with a Bloody Mary in one hand and a betting slip in the other: That would be in Elvis' TV room at Graceland, eating fried peanut butter and banana sandwiches and tuning in to the games with the King himself.
Starting Thursday, millions of normally hardworking Americans will take a break from their breadwinning in order to view a few hours of college basketball. From cubicles and corner offices alike, obsessed hoop fans will excuse themselves for a few minutes, or in some cases hours, to gather at the nearest sports bar or conference room to check on their alma mater's performance -- or maybe just to update their office pool, all of which reportedly costs corporate America billions in lost productivity.
But all these manic hoop fans -- and their employers -- would be much better off if they just dropped the charade and hopped a plane to Las Vegas, where you will find the four necessities for serious March Madness enjoyment: comfortable chairs, multiple big-screen TVs, Bloody Marys and, of course, sports betting.
