Kevin Harlan's latest iconic ad read will have you pumped about vowels
Kevin Harlan has been, and always will be, the king of ad reads.
Where most announcers try to get through their mandated in-game commercials as quickly as possibly to get back to the action, Harlan elevates this part of the job into an art form. On Friday night during the NCAA men's tournament, the play-by-play man painted another masterpiece thanks to LG deciding to do away with consonants when naming it's newest television model.
Arguably the most excited Harlan got all game between Troy and Kentucky is when he got to ad-lib after reading off the LG script.
