The auctions with the reserve rounds can be done in five hours, but that's cruising. Usually they take between five hours and 5:30 or 5:45. Sometimes six hours.

Quack - I guess we'll just have to check this draft up to "technical difficulties!" LOL

The Sunday Super Draft lasted a ridiculous 5 hours.

I think I clocked our draft (LV 9) at 3:22. Jason was running things so smoothly and everyone drafting so quickly I don't even remember there being a timer for over half the draft - no one at the draft table seemed to need one. I could have used a couple more minutes though...

By the time I drove back to Sarasota it was after 8pm.
