We remember Curt Gowdy (1919-2006)

We remember Curt Gowdy who was born in Wyoming on this day in 1919.

A few days ago, I caught an audio clip of Curt Gowdy doing a World Series game many years ago.    What a treat to hear that voice again!

Most of us grew up watching the NBC Saturday afternoon baseball game of the week and listening to Gowdy's voice.   I recall many World Series games, too.  He was also the voice of the Super Bowl and the famous Heidi game, when NBC cut off the Jets-Raiders game to broadcast the Disney movie.

In '84, Gowdy was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1984.    Curt Gowdy died in 2006.   He was a gem calling baseball and football.
