Bob Blackburn is now in heaven calling games with Chick Hearn, Johnny Most and Skip Caray. Bob is to the SuperSonics like Hearn to the Lakers and Johnny Most to the Celtics.

I remember when KIRO got the rights from KOMO, and was going to bring in a new play by play man. Public pressure forced them to retain Blackburn. They made the announcement at a Sonics game. The PA announcer started by saying the Sonics would like to introduce their new voice for the following season. The crowd booed. Then he said it would be the same voice fans had heard since 67- Bob Blackburn. The crowd gave that news a standing O.

@Freenbean Remember who KIRO tried to replace Blackburn with? Gary Justice!!

Rest In Peace Bob. We will always remember you as the voice of the Seattle Supersonics. It was always great to listen to you call the games on the radio when we could not watch it on t.v.
