Pete
Byron
RING ANNOUNCER
Classic ring crier worked the Philly boxing
scene in the 1940's, 50's & 60's. His nasal proclamations
pierced the cigar smoke of the Philadelphia Arena and the chilly
night air of Shibe Park during some of the city's biggest
fistic events. Byron also worked as the public address
announcer for the Phillies.
