Jim Hawthorne’s call.
That is my favorite radio call of all time in any sport at any level.

A game & a moment I will never forget. I feel so fortunate to have been there sitting 10 rows above the LSU dugout with some very good friends.
I never really saw the ball go over the wall. It was absolutely massive hysteria in the seats. After everything settled down a little bit, I realized that I wound up in the row behind me & 3 seats over. I have no idea how that happened! When I returned home 2 days later, my 10 year old daughter asked me what the marks were on the back of legs. I had bruises which had to be from the metal arms rests since my seat was in the old part of Rosenblatt.

I shed those LSU tears at that moment, and the next time was in the Superdome in 2004!

Jim Hawthorne's Call


Man I sure do miss listening to him call games. He was a true Tiger fan in every sense of the word and poured his heart and soul into each and every call no matter which sport he was calling. He may not have always got the calls right but by God he was one of us.

he was so exited...he called it a 3 run homer...but they quickly edited the broadcast for the replays of the call (like the Bluegrass Miracle call)
