Fixtures
Note: Fairfield will automatically advance to Round 2 as the winner in the last tournament.
Old Saybrook vs Middlefield
Salem vs Monroe
Cheshire vs Sprague
New Hartford vs Oxford
East Hartford vs New Haven
Canton vs Franklin
Brookfield vs Windsor Locks
Essex vs Andover
Chaplin vs Woodbridge
Cornwall vs Cromwell: LOL
Brooklyn vs Wallingford
Bozrah vs Southbury
North Stonington vs Old Lyme: Very Tough
Windham vs Newtown
Seymour vs Goshen
Darien vs Willington: Darien is probably the favorite, but I like the town of Willington, and I prefer the somewhat rural town to the ritzy upscale suburb of NYC.
Columbia vs Plainville
Burlington vs Middlebury
Colchester vs Enfield
North Branford vs Stonington
Litchfield vs Haddam
Montville vs Sherman
Westport vs Bristol
Winchester vs Norwalk:
Lyme vs Bridgewater
East Hampton vs Prospect
Glastonbury vs Bethlehem
Bloomfield vs Portland
New Milford vs Berlin
Danbury vs Vernon
Greenwich vs Bridgeport: Many of you will likely be surprised by this decision, but I am not a big fan of Greenwich at all. I feel like Greenwich and Darien are towns with some of the most rude and arrogant people you will find. Very ritzy people who look down on the middle class and poor. Parts of Bridgeport are a dump, but there are a few good areas like Black Rock.
Rocky Hill vs Windsor
Hamden vs Farmington
Trumbull vs West Haven
Suffield vs Pomfret
West Hartford vs Clinton: Also very tough. I'd take the coastal town over the Hartford suburb by a slim margin.
Union vs Roxbury
Madison vs Ashford
Groton vs Torrington
Plainfield vs Wethersfield: Tough as well.
Weston vs Plymouth
Norfolk vs Westbrook
Canaan vs Norwich
Marlborough vs Hartland: Another very tough fixture. Marlborough is an amazing rural town with many woods, but Hartland also has a great forest. However I will have to go with Marlborough because of its location, and also because I feel it is a little more upscale rural town.
Hampton vs Newington
New Fairfield vs Eastford
Harwinton vs Waterbury: Neither
South Windsor vs Hebron
Branford vs Waterford
Lisbon vs Chester
Scotland vs Putnam: Another tough one for me. I love the Quiet Corner in general, but Putnam is working class while Scotland is a really nice country town.
East Granby vs Guilford
Shelton vs Colebrook
Durham vs Stamford
Sterling vs Stratford
New London vs Lebanon
Tolland vs New Canaan
Salisbury vs Ellington
Granby vs Derby
Thompson vs Easton
Barkhamsted vs Voluntown
Mansfield vs Avon
Bolton vs Wolcott
Bethany vs Southington
Ridgefield vs Somers
Griswold vs Naugatuck
Sharon vs East Lyme
North Haven vs Coventry
Stafford vs Simsbury
Washington vs Deep River
Wilton vs Ledyard
Bethel vs East Windsor
Meriden vs Kent: LOL this is actually a repeat fixture from Round 1 in the 2016 Tournament!
Hartford vs Watertown
Beacon Falls vs Thomaston
East Haven vs Milford
Woodstock vs Redding
Orange vs Morris
Middletown vs North Canaan
Warren vs Preston
Killingly vs New Britain
Killingworth vs Manchester: Another very tough one.
I also believe New Haven and Stamford will be a lot tougher to beat than many people here would predict. Part of the reason being towns that many people will be familiar with.
Yeah, I think I would have put New Haven and Stamford together. Though these are apparently not about like vs like towns - I missed the other contests.

They are not necessarily meant to be like vs like. Even if we started that way, sooner later we would have to make unfair comparisons because one town needs to win eventually.
Also these fixtures were not my choices, I did a random draw to see who faces who. I did not choose any of them.
Ahh I see. Yeah New Canaan as well. Westport I feel to a little lesser extent. I feel you'll find on average friendlier people but to some extent Westport will still have that feeling.
How did you decide the pairings ? Was it random ? Some of the pairings seem odd to me such as Killingly vs New Britain. They don't have anything in common, but New Britain vs Meriden would make a lot more sense.

The pairings were random. I did a random draw for every town, and came up with those pairings after. I did not choose any of them.
