THe PA guy..
Referred to the Gophers as "Minneapolis" instead of Minnesota a number of times and he botched the 50/50 number. I know I'm forgetting a few...

It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.
Maybe they could just pipe the radio broadcast in the stadium since there isn't any stations in the vicinity that you could actually listen to? 
Really am sick and tired of that guy screwing up. Pick up the freaking pronunciation guide too you idiot. After four years, #30's name is pronounced AIR-Reek, not Eric.

I always have, and still always will, think he sounds like a robot. If you were a nertural fan at the game you wouldn't know which time was the home team, he announces plays for each the same way. I wish the volleyball or men's basketball PA person also did football

All I know is that when you notice the announcer because of his MANY mistakes, it is BAD! (Especially when it is a home game!)
I don't think anyone from the athletic department listens to his announcing, or he would have been gone long ago.
Why was only one ticket booth open on the east side? There was a line nearly 100 yards long, 45 minutes before the game.

This is a great thread! We were quite annoyed at the announcing as well!! Ok, question....Is it pronounced "Haneline" with a long A or "Henline" with a short e? I always thought it was pronounced with a Long A, as it "Hanes" underware. The announcer kept calling him "Henline."Warthog wrote:Maybe they could just pipe the radio broadcast in the stadium since there isn't any stations in the vicinity that you could actually listen to?

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."
