Just like you said, the TOURNAMENT is one of the most popular events in the U.S. It's the buzz of every office for a couple of weeks, when tourney games games gather big TV crowds (and often tiny in-person crowds). Of course, this comes after all but college kids and the most diehard of hoops fans sleep through the entire regular season.
