Did it in 2:18. Should've been around 1:55, but I had a brain cramp and left off Idaho and Montana at first.

1:25 remaining

I had 49 with about three minutes to go, but forgot Maryland. I finally resorted to going through professional sports teams, and when I got to the Orioles, I finally had it!

I did it with 8:08 remaining.

I learned them all in a song for a 5th grade musical.

I'm really bad with geography... and remembering it... I had no idea how to spell Connecticut. That's probably really sad.

6:57 left. Not bad, not as good as I once was.

Do you guys try to cross the map, or do them alphabetically?

Re: Can you name all 50 States in 10 minutes?

I did it geographically in my head. Started in the northeast and went from there. I had 6 plus minutes left with only Nebraska left. Cost me over 4 minutes.
