Find out which John Williams Speed Joke outranked them all according to WGN listeners.

John Williams’ Best Speed Jokes of 2023 Tournament, sponsored by Team Hochberg, was a labor of love to many at WGN Radio. John, producer Pete Zimmerman, Speed Jokes expert Marge Sipla, web producer Dave Marzullo and Sr. digital strategist Michael Piff put their heads together to sort through thousands of hilarious speed jokes from the past year, select the 16 best jokes, organize them into a bracket, and curate a daily poll for 3 weeks that was voted on by you, the WGN Radio audience.

After 10,000+ votes were made over 15 matchups, a champion has finally been crowned.
