VIEW FROM THE BOOTH: Ted Ramey on the Clasico & Lima extension

California Clasico Dreaming

Outside of family related things, or the playoffs, the California Clasico is my favorite day of the year. Fifty thousand Quakes fans going crazy in one building. I am a big fan of atmosphere (hey, there's no visuals in radio. If the crowd is loud, the game sounds important, the broadcast sounds bigger and better), and there is no better atmosphere than the Clasico for a regular season game. Because of the rivalry, the history, the crazy finishes, Wondo, Zlatan, Bingham, Magnus, Hoesen, this game has it all. If you actually believe there won't be pushing and shoving, I question your sanity.
