Circa Survivor 2024/2025 returned with a no-rake, hefty payout of $10 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.
Circa Million VI boasts 126 different ways to win throughout the season with $6 million in total prizes. First place overall was awarded $1 million and a coveted Circa Sports blue jacket while the remaining prize pool was allocated amongst places two through 100, the quarterly top five and booby prize winners. Each player made five picks against the spread each week via the Circa Sports Nevada mobile app, a Circa Sports kiosk or over the counter at any of the seven Circa Sports locations in Nevada. One point was awarded for each correct selection and one-half point for each push.
Details for the upcoming 2025/2026 Circa Sports professional football contests will be announced soon. For more information on Circa Sports, please click here.
