Winners Bracket:

Fairfield vs Stonington. I'll take the beaty of Stonington here. Route 1 through downtown Fairfield drops it down a peg.

Milford vs Madison. See Fairfield vs. Stonington. More options in Milford, but route 1 and than down by the train station drops it down a peg. But Madison is way ore scenic.

Guilford vs Litchfield. Litchfield made a nice run to get here, but they are Stetson going up against UConn here.

New Haven vs Old Saybrook. New Haven easy for me here.


Losers Bracket:

Haddam vs Groton. Haddam has some nice areas, but the person a couple replies below this was right Groton is very underrated.

Oxford vs Portland. Oxford is a "valley" town but doesn't have the industrial vibe like other valley towns in Derby, Seymour, Naugatuck, etc. And the times I've driven through Portland on 66 & 17A it just seems blah to me

East Haddam vs Monroe.

Canton vs Cheshire. Canton is a very underrated town.

Durham vs Southington.

Darien vs Wethersfield.

New Milford vs Colchester.

Washington vs New London.

Bethel vs Middlebury.

Waterford vs Shelton.

Clinton vs Roxbury.

Salisbury vs Cromwell.

Deep River vs North Stonington.

Lyme vs Hartford.

Woodstock vs Bridgewater.

Westbrook vs New Canaan.

Have you ever been to Brownstone Adventure Park in Portland? I assume NOT from what you said. You really should go whenever you got a chance; it is amazing and some of the best water activities you can find in the state.

B].

If Rt 1 drops down pegs for Fairfield and Milford why don’t New Haven ghettos drop down pegs for New Haven?

Plus it’s a nice town that is affordable by southwestern Connecticut standards. And the Quarry Walk mixed use development has brought many much needed conveniences previously missing from the town.

Umm, you already voted. Are you trying to vote twice or did you forget? I have noticed a few changes in the Loser’s Bracket from your first post though. Do you want me to change your votes that you changed with this post?

I get route 1 but downtown? It’s a classic New England downtown with a harbor/green/water features. Why would that be a detriment??

I personally like Neapolitan pizza the best and feel it is the most unique in the world (exception of Chicago Deep Dish).

Recently, a lot of New Haven residents and people living in the surrounding CT towns were talking about Zeneli's and how their pizza is from a completely different place across the world and it is beating the authentic New Haven locally owned Pepe's, Modern, and Zuppardi's in quality. Zeneli's is very authentic Neapolitan and might be the best Neapolitan you'll find in the state.

Yes Zeneli is good. So is Strega in Milford. Both authentic Neapolitan.

No one local says it’s better than apizza. It’s a totally different style.
