Harry Osbourne
One of the more important jobs at the track is the announcer. A good announcer sells the racers to the fans and makes them more appealing than they already are. In the 1970s, we had Harry Osborne. Harry made it fun for the fans with his pleasant style.
One of the things he was responsible for was some of the nicknames that are still remembered to this day. They helped the fans further identify with their favorite racers. Whether it was Dennis "Foot In It" Furia, "Chargin" Marvin Wilson, Dana "Always On It" Auger or any of the dozens of nicknames he had for the racers, this was also a way in which Harry endeared himself to the fans of that era.
