By the end of the night we had heard that Brandon had sold the most tickets, followed by Kyle; and for most coins collected it was Kyle followed by Brandon. With those extra points being awarded, the crowd interaction, and the judges votes, Kyle Sibaja was voted and crowned as the newest Mr. Manville.
