Circa Sports announced Wednesday it will award $11 million total to the winners of the 2021-2022 professional football contests Circa Million III and Circa Survivor. With Circa Survivor being the world’s largest legal survivor football contest, the payouts will include $7 million in winnings and $4 million for Circa Million III, respectively. 

During the event at The D Las Vegas, CEO Derek Stevens and his Circa Sports team will present the winning checks, which include: 

• Five seven-figure prizes to the winners of Circa Survivor – three at $1,533,333.35 and two at $1,200,000.00

• Full season Circa Million III prizes, including a $1 million payout for first place 

• A six-figure payout for the winner of Q4 for Circa Million III

• A $100,000 booby prize for Circa Million III Full Season

Circa Survivor’s second season came with $6 million total guaranteed payouts plus an additional $1 million dollar bonus. The contest consisted of multiple legs throughout the year and included one for each week of the football season plus Thanksgiving and Christmas week. Each week, bettors chose one different team to win straight up, but the better could not pick the same team twice for the duration of the season. 

Circa Million III featured $4 million in total prizes and delivered a $1 million top prize and quarterly payouts. The contest included 100% percent payback of the prize pool to players, no rake. To enter, each bettor made five professional football picks against the spread each week. Each correct selection was awarded one point and one-half point for each push.

The event will take place at the D Las Vegas, in the Detroit Ballroom on Friday January 14 at 6:30 PM, and will be presided by CEO Derek Stevens, with the presence of Mke Palm, Vice President of Operations, Matt Metcalf, Director of Circa Sports, and Jeff Benson.
