Kevin Harlan is one of the best play-by-play announcers in sports, and he’s unmatched when it comes to commentary about random activities going on during the game. His call of a fan running on the field during a Rams-49ers MNF game in 2016 is legendary, for example.
And during Thursday night’s Celtics-Bucks game shown on TNT, Harlan had an amazing call after Boston’s Marcus Morris knocked over a fan’s beer courtside at Fiserv Forum.

“MORRIS IS DRIPPING WITH BEER! PABST, OLD STYLE, OR SCHLITZ MAYBE, WHO KNOWS! HE’S JUST SOAKED WITH BEER! AND IT’S IN THE GUY’S HAIR! IT’S IN THE GUY’S HAIR!”
That’s Harlan’s trademark enthusiasm and comedy at its best.
