In 1996, when the Flyers moved from the Spectrum, to their current home, the Wells Fargo Center, Lou came with the
Also, as a PA Announcer fan account, let's wish a Happy Retirement to the other man who works the Xfinity Mobile Arena PA mic, the 76ers Matt Cord, who for all but one season since 1997 did the job for the Sixers! Congratulations!
I don't think Lou would mind me saying on behalf of all of us, great season boys! I know I, your moderator am so proud! Playoff hockey returned to our area this year, somewhat unexpectedly, and it was pretty good! Still have work to do, but we should all be proud! LET'S GO FLYERS!
PENNSYLVANIA IS OURS! LOU'S GOT 2ND ROUND GAMES TO CALL! LET'S GO FLYERS!
Lou nation! For the first time in 8 years, Lou has a playoff game to call(2020 Playoffs were in the bubble)! Boys did the job perfectly in Pittsburgh, have to do it at home now! LET'S GO FLYERS!
Lou nation, let's all wish Lou a Happy 80th Birthday! He's working on his birthday, hope the boys make it a W!

Another great Home Opener for Lou! This one meant a little more as Lou read the Bernie tribute. Great job Lou, and great job Flyers!
Couple things, Lou nation! Next season, the Wells Fargo Center becomes Xfinity Mobile Arena, 5th and should be final name. Lou has now hit 53 years as our PA Announcer. And boy did our Flyers get hosed last night, first in the Draft Lottery, and then Michkov not even NOMINATED for the Calder despite scoring the most goals among rookies!
Lou nation. I've received a message from someone claiming to be from Meta, and I'm about 50-50 on whether or not it's real. It's pretty convincing but also a bit shady. They say our page here infringes upon their intellectual property, and the page is scheduled for deletion. If this ends up happening, I will start a new page, and I guess I'll be stuck building it back up. Thanks, Andrew.
Lou nation, as we are a page to celebrate and continue to support a legendary NHL PA Announcer, indulge me in a tribute to another. RIP Paul Morris(1938-2025)(86). Paul Morris was the Toronto Maple Leafs PA Announcer from 1961-1999. He was the voice of the last 38 years at Maple Leaf Gardens, and the first few months at what opened as the Air Canada Centre. He was also the Maple Leaf Gardens sound engineer. Ironically, when he retired in 1999, he was succeeded by Andy Frost, the father of the up until recently Flyers center Morgan Frost. RIP Paul Morris

Dear Lou nation, I call upon you to send your well wishes to Lou's counterpart in DC! Washington Capitals PA Announcer Wes Johnson has been their PA Announcer since 2000, and he recently suffered a significant medical event. He's out of a coma, and now back home, but still faces a long road. Wes supported our Lou petition, and is a friend of this page. You can donate to his gofundme here:
