Ken Squier's Iconic Call of the 1979 Daytona 500



I am not a car racing guy. I assume this is one of the wildest endings to a race in the history of NASCAR, and even then it does nothing for me.

So what's the point?

The man on the mic is Ken Squier. Ken Squier played the announcer in "Rad." Ken worked for CBS and was the principle announcer for the Daytona 500 for nearly 20 years and he once said "Hulk Hogan eat your heart out" after a kid did a backflip on a bike.

Ken died in 2023.
