Update:
Bill Carr of Visalia won our contest with a guess of 44 minutes, 44 seconds.
Mayor Alan Autry surprised most of the experts by holding his State of the City speech this afternoon to 44 minutes, nine seconds. Last year, he spoke 80 minutes, and the betting was that he'd be near that mark this time around. Maybe his knowledge of this contest caused him to tighten up his talk.
We are determining the results of our contest out of the 185 readers who offered guesses on the length of the mayor's speech. We will post the winner as soon as possible. The closest guess wins four tickets to Champions on Ice at the Save Mart Center on May 30.
