20 years ago today Buddy Diliberto passed away
Buddy was an institution, one of the early New Orleans sports casting legends along with Hap Glaudi and Jimmy Steele ("I raise the cup.") Those guys had a lot of local flavor but they were passionate about sports.
Before radio, Buddy hosted a weekly television show to recap the games and gave away a free Wittenauer wrist watch to the guests. It was the '70s so guys came on air in outrageous get ups. It was great stuff!
