Re(1): #539 - Have you ever been in the announcer's booth?

I was invited to watch a few games in the booth with my buddy at Dania by Larry Diamond. We had live super tickets and were in the playoff for show/4th and Larry kept telling us we couldn't make a sound...tough to do especially back in those days pre ten cent super days...Lecue scored the winner on a cortada that Celaya barely missed and the super was in! It was very cool to see the game from that perspective, especially how the ball "wobbles" at high speeds and how hard some catches were peeling off the wall. Got to stay up there for the next two games until Larry had his break and saw lots of great effort. Man I miss Osa, Cuvet, and J. Arriaga!
