Ken Squire is the best announcer NASCAR ever had. Clear. Concise. Dramatic. He made the Daytona 500 into the Great American Race. The clowns that do tv now talk too much, joke around too much. Less is more. Racing on TV needs more Ken Squires.
Agree, RIP
Incredible. The look on Ken's face as he watched the clip brought me to tears. What a treasure he is.
Ken is the best there is . Great to see him doing well .let's not forget him ever.
His CBS intros for the Daytona 500 were all I could think about in December and January growing up. Him and Ned Jarrett were awesome together.
My 1st 500. In the race pool with my dad and his friends, I asked everyone if I could have Richard because I drew AJ Foyt. They all agreed. I knew while standing on the motorhome that Donnie Allison was fixing to win. Next thing I knew I was a 15 year old with around $500 and my favorite won.....
I no longer have any interest in watching NASCAR races, but back in the 80's I was an avid fan. And Ken Squier was as much a part of the racing as the drivers and teams were. He was the person that brought the racing to life, bringing us the stories that made the events even more interesting. I have much respect for you, Mr. Squier, many thanks to you.
You should give it another try. I enjoy all of it.
@@south_carolina_man no thanks, NASCAR has turned it's back on it's Southern roots. It will never be as good as it used to be for me.
@@aguyinnc2865 very well. I hope you change your mind in the future.
A Guy in NC…… I totally agree. I stared loosing interest when Harry Gant retired. Followed Terry Labonte then he retired ☹️. Today it seems money buys rides not talent. I know I know that’s the future but I’m not liking it . I do miss the days w Jen a reporter would shove a microphone into the car and ask a driver what’s going on while on a pitstop!
We just watched a man relive probably one of the most treasured moments of his life. You saw it in his face….beautiful.
The rest of the story was Cale Yarborough's speech at the 1979 NASCAR awards ceremony, I think it was in New York. About fighting the two Allisons, Cale Yarborough said; "It wasn't a fair fight, I should've had one hand tied behind my back!" That spunk is why I always liked Cale, even though I was an Allison fan.
Bobby stopped near the crash to check on Donnie. Yarborough confronted him through his window. "He ran toward me and started yelling at me," Bobby said. "And then he hit me in the face with his helmet, which really surprised me. I still had my seatbelts on. I had my helmet on, and that shielded me a little bit, but it cut my nose and my lips. By then, blood was dripping in my lap. I've either got to get out of the car and handle this or run from him the rest of my life. So I got out of my car and he went to beating on my fists with his nose."
The best thing that could have happened for Nascar, eastern seaboard snowed in,then Donnie and Bobby vs Cale,
The perfect storm
I remember that race. Was pulling for Yarborough.
Excellent interview with the ICONIC Ken Squier
Thanks for all the years ken .
I remember watching that with my dad .
Great job ! Well done! Always loved Mr Squier. Thank you both.
He loved this sport more than any of us could ever dream to. Goodbye Ken. See you real soon
Ken was my favorite NASCAR announcer of all time.
Such an iconic voice in motorsports history, good to see he's doing ok
The northeast was in a Blizzard that weekend.
What a Legend!! (Ken that is)
Just heard about Ken's passing. RIP
Thanks y'all so much for the great videos it really means alot to me
I'm from mass. He owned or still owns thunder road berry vermont.home of the milk bowl winner of that race drinks cows milk .been there Once. Cool track beer hill .quite a cool place to see a race .
They have sold the track I think around 2016 can’t remember exactly. I’ve got to meet him several times at a different Vermont track when he was still doing some traveling with the ACT series. Great guy.
That was a great call.
I've been a Nascar fan since that race!
Class act Ken.
The 🐐
Legendary
It’s true that Mr..Squire not only understood the car-pool lane ….. but also understood the psychology
Wish you would have shown the video. I miss Ken's color commentary.
Ken Squirer is the best bring hin to Fox
Love Ken Squier, always thought he did the best job.
The jury is still out on this kid reporter, though...
Rip
Yes racings best behind the mike. I think he got his start at that little old speed way at waterford ,vermont. Bout 20 mi from my homestead at dalton nh.
That was true nascar racing. Now when they touch people say oh my god he hit him. Or when they get out and fight nascar fines them. Let them race and let them settle it.
Probably had more motor sports knowlege than any one man ever..
It was snowing all the way up the east coast is the reason France let them open up the tv
