CIRCA SPORTS TEASES THE GUARANTEE FOR RECORD-BREAKING PRO FOOTBALL CONTESTS
Circa Million and Circa Survivor to Top $20 Million for the 2025-2026 Season
They are not done yet. Circa Sports continues to up the ante for professional football contests – Circa Million and Circa Survivor.
Today, Circa Sports CEO Derek Stevens released a video teasing the seventh year of the contests.
The full details on this year’s Circa Million and Circa Survivor will be announced in the coming weeks.
During the 2024-2025 season, Circa Million VI delivered an unprecedented $6 million in guaranteed total prizes. First place took home $1 million and a coveted, handmade Circa Sports blue jacket. Each contestant made five professional football picks against the spread each week. One point was awarded for each correct selection and one-half point for each push. Each entry for Circa Million VI was $1,000, with a maximum of five entries per person. The contest included no rake, and any extra fees went into the quarter- and full-season prize pools.
The largest prize pot in history, totaling $14,266,000, was awarded to the eight winners of Circa Survivor. All eight contestants held a 20-0 record throughout the 2024-2025 season. Each winning entry took home $1,783,250. Circa Survivor 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 chose one different team to win straight up, but the player couldn’t pick the same team twice for the duration of the season.
At the conclusion of the season, the Circa Sports team presented a multitude of checks, with highlights including:
- $14.26 million split equally among the eight winners of Circa Survivor to C3 Picks, DREAM STAKES, MEATBALL BROTHERS, PUMBAPACK9, TY1823, VODKA JOHNNY, WHATEVERYALLWANT, and Whiskey Business
- $1 million to Circa Million VI first place winner, Team BP
- $500,000 Circa Million VI second place winner, Path2Victory
- $375,000 for each Circa Million VI third place tie, VICTORY FORMATION and ROBMOTAG
