We're doing something relatively new here at Patch, borrowing an idea from social media networks.

We're calling it the Weekend PatchTag Project.

It's simple.

Using your Instagram account, post a photo of how you're enjoying the first round of the NCAA tournament—you know, pics of your brackets (marked in red, or with all of your correct picks), a shot of the bar where you're watching the games, or you and your friends sporting your team's logo. Tag it with #PatchBrackets and it'll appear in our grid of images on every Patch site in Maryland.

It's your chance to show off your community—and your bracket, your favorite team and favorite sports bar—to the rest of the state.

Now get to it!

Oh, and while you're at it, what's your Instagram handle? Post it in a comment below, and let us know what Patch you live in, and we'll follow you!
