Kevin Harlan call of streaker on field is greatest radio call in history
Kevin Harlan needs a Marconi Award or better yet a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame for this incredible gem of a call of a streaker running onto the field during the 49ers-Rams game on Monday night.
As the game between the two mostly inept teams stunk, one fan livened things up by running onto the field during the 4th quarter. Now we’ve come to learn that the true fated reason for the fan’s mad dash was just so Westwood One’s Harlan could show the world just what an incredible broadcaster he truly is.
This play-by-play call is incredible:

I lost it as soon as he said “goofball.” That was pure comedy gold. And Harlan now has earned legendary status forever and erased everything associated with this silly controversy.
Here’s a full transcription of the call:
