Description
Fantasy leagues are growing to include far more than just sports. In 2016, a group of friends decided to start betting on the reality TV show "The Bachelor". What started as a game has since grown into a mini-fantasy reality TV empire. Bracketology.tv co-founder Kaitlyn Hurley says the games have expanded to include "Survivor" and "Big Brother", with more shows on the way.
