We have one last controversy before the 2022 year ends.
North Carolina State basketball and football announcer Gary Hahn has been suspended indefinitely after he made a disgusting comment on Friday. During the Duke’s Mayo Bowl, Hahn referred to immigrants stuck in El Paso as “illegal aliens.”
“In the Sun Bowl and amongst all the illegal aliens down in El Paso, it’s UCLA 14 and Pittsburgh six. That’s will 11:15 to go in the second quarter,” Hahn said.
Kyle Winchester, the general manager of Wolfpack Sports Properties, released a statement shortly after his disgusting words.
“Learfield has suspended Wolfpack Sports Network Play-by-Play announcer Gary Hahn indefinitely following comments made during today’s Duke Mayo Bowl radio broadcast,” Winchester said.

Hahn, who has been the voice of NC State’s football and men’s basketball teams since 1991, was named the North Carolina Sportscaster of the Year in 2011 and 2020.
This is going to be a huge stain on his career.
