Is this the same guy that does the Hill Murray games? Cuz that guy is good.
Yes it is.
Haha, that guy is classic. Gotta love the intensity he has...even for the JV games. The way he says the home team names is just great, makes me laugh.

He keeps you from sitting in the isles, thats for sure!

The one thing I hate about him is that he keeps saying...

"Scoring for Hill Murray..." God I hate that!
The only soft spot I see is the one between my legs

At the Johnson/Como game, he had to make the announcement for the "Rice St. Cup" (which was being played later that week) no less than 15 times... That was about once for every person in the stands. :lol:

It was way over the top.

Yeah you wont find yourself sitting in the isles for to long.

I also like the NO smoking inside the state fair grounds coliseum.

Dave Wright - I can't STAND that guy! My buddy can do a great impersonation though - although it wouldn't probably work to do it here on the bored! :oops:

Couldn't agree more with Dick Stanford - 6-4 soph - o - more Chris Weinke - still remember that one!

This might be showing my age, but every year when my dad and I would walk up that ramp at the old Civic Center - there was the same guy hawking the "state tournament proggggrrram" First thing you heard! He was at the X, but I didn't see him the last couple years...

And that would just be one of the awesome memories of the Civic Center - doing a lap was another. My dad's tickets were in section 239, row P, and all the guys that had to go to the pressbox walked right up the aisle. Sid Hartman would show up JUST for the Saturday night championship game, and everyone would give him a hard time! He would always complain they didn't have an elevator too.

Maybe if you would shower more than bi-weekly you'd get it off sooner.....Or, try using SOAP next time.

Anybody ever been to see a Rochester Mayo game at Graham arena and you would know what a great announcer doesn't sound like. That guy sounds like he's playing tonsel hockey with the mike.

I like the way he says "Chuck-A-Puck"... How long has he been announcing up there?
