Katie Way, a journalist in Brooklyn, did not watch the first three seasons of “Succession,” but she still put her name (and $20) into a bracket pool with nine other people.
“I guess I’m a little contrarian.”By the end of the episode, Ms. Way and the other contestant had each claimed their $100.
When asked what she would spend her winnings on, she said, “I probably spent more money buying wine bottles for the watch parties, so I’ll probably spend it on more food for future watch parties.”
