About Circa Survivor
Circa Survivor 2023/2024 returned with a no-rake, hefty payout of $8 million guaranteed for the last entry standing, with additional funds added because entries exceeded. The contest consisted of up to 20 legs throughout the year, one for every week of the football season plus two special weeks.
Each week, participants had to choose a team to win straight up, but the player could not pick the same team twice for the duration of the season. Thanksgiving/Black Friday and Christmas Day were each considered their own contest weeks.
Entries were eliminated from the contest by selecting a team that subsequently lost or tied its game that week.
About Circa Million V
Circa Million V delivered $6 million guaranteed in total prizes, with a $1 million first place prize that comes with a coveted Circa Sports blue jacket. The contest featured no rake, and any extra fees went into the quarter- and full-season prize pools.
$3.65 million was allocated amongst places two through 100 and $300,000 of prizes per quarter will be awarded every four to five weeks. The last place booby prize winner receives $100,000 and second-to-last place booby prize winner receives $50,000.
During the Circa Million V contest, each player made five professional football picks against the spread each week. One point was awarded for each correct selection and one-half point for each push. Each entry for Circa Million V was $1,000, with a maximum of five entries per person. The contest included no rake, and any extra fees went into the quarter- and full-season prize pools.
