Vikings radio announcer goes crazy for 'good!' missed field goal in awkward on-air mistake

Posted Sep 23, 2021
The Vikings had a chance to beat the Cardinals in the final seconds Sunday with a 37-yard field goal. Minnesota was trailing 34-33. After Greg Joseph kicked the ball, Vikings radio play-by-play announcer Paul Allen screamed, "It is...good!" The issue with Allen's call is that the kick was not good. Allen didn't notice until analyst Pete Bercich said, "It's no good." (Sporting News)
