March Madness Upsets May Prove We Are Living In The Matrix

By Cam Giangrande

A little over a year ago, on February 27th 2017, writer Adam Gopnik wrote an article for The New Yorker, where he questioned whether or not we were living in some sort of alternate universe similar to Keanu Reeves in the movie, “The Matrix”.

The stimulus behind the article was that many; too many unusual occurrences were happening, and that the most logical solution was there must be some sort of entity that had taken over controlling us like a snowglobe being turned upside down and shaken.

The final straw for Gopnik, which led him to that conclusion was the Academy Awards, when Warren Beatty called out the movie “La La Land” for Best Picture, when in fact, the movie “Moonlight” was the actual winner.
