Georgia legend Larry Munson’s last call was remembering an American hero, UGA cheerleader Noah Harris.
His on-the-air calls of Georgia Bulldog moments are part of the fabric of college football and his unabashed love of Georgia endeared Larry Munson to generations of Dawg Nation. The gravelly voice that produced “Appleby to Washington”, “We just stepped on their face with a hobnailed boot”, “Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott! Lindsay Scott!”, “My God, a freshman!”, “So we’ll try to kick one a hundred thousand miles” and so many more, Munson’s last call may have been his finest.
Munson’s final bequest, before he passed away in 2011 at the age of 89, was for the Georgia faithful to remember the rewarding but terribly short life of US Army 1st Lieutenant Noah Harris, a former Bulldog cheerleader captain.
