Your Attention Please - Announcer/Cop tells the story of a want-to-be disc jockey playing records during a high school lunch hour that became a professional and collegiate sport announcing career spanning five decades.
Like John Ramsey, who announced professional and collegiate sports teams for over three decades, Dennis Packer took his talent to another level.
He announced two football games in their entirety on the same day that were two hours apart. One game, the Japan Bowl, kicked off at noon, and the other, after crossing the International Dateline, the Los Angeles Raiders kicked off against the Cincinnati Bengals at 2 pm.
Off the playing field, Conquest, Mule Train, White Lace, Jamaican Express West, and Up in Smoke were just a partial list of complex investigations of drug trafficking, money laundering, organized crime, and corruption during Detective Packer's watch.
During the execution of a search warrant at a drug dealer's house, the arrestee stated to Detective Packer, your voice sounds just like the announcer at Dodger Stadium.
