March Madness traces back to Illinois' statewide high-school basketball tournament, which began in 1908. In 1939, an official with the Illinois High School Association, Henry V. Porter, penned an article called March Madness for the organization's in-house magazine.
And starting in 1996, the March Madness Experience, an exhibition hall full of fun, games, and good times, has allowed fans of Illinois high school basketball to join in the action. The popularity of these events now allows the IHSA to provide more than just good entertainment for its fans.
