Jim Zabel: 65 Years of Fun and Games by Jim Zabel
According to coauthor Rich Wolfe, Jim Zabel is a god in Iowa. Over 50 years of University of Iowa football and basketball broadcasts have made him a weekly guest in millions of Iowa households. If Howard Stern is the voice of all our malevolent dark thoughts, Jim Zabel is the good angel on the other shoulder, providing the voiceover soundtrack for all the grain-fed young Hawkeyes of the Heartland. Jim Zabel: 65 Years of Fun and Games is a marvelous, funny, and true account of the absolutely incredible career of the voice of Iowa. Never-before-told, behind-the-scenes stories mixed with great humor plus dozens of priceless photos make this book a must-read for the hundreds of thousands of Jim Zabel fans. The remembrances are all here, from his youth growing up in Davenport and his match race with Jesse Owens to his days as a University of Iowa student and his relationships with presidents, movie stars, and hall of famers. If a basketball or a football could talk, it would sound like Jim Zabel. The included CD is an audio collection of his greatest calls -- which more specifically are Iowa Hawkeyes highlights of game-winning passes/baskets for which he was the radio broadcaster.| SKU | Unavailable |
