Behind the Mic...15 Hours with Ed Kalegi

Bears & Eagles Riverfront stadium is home to the NCAA Division III Mid-Atlantic Regional this week. With 4 games each day, the front office and game day staff has become pretty close, very quickly.

Ed Kalegi, Newark Bears PA announcer and on-field host has been on site working the tournament. No questions have gone unasked and no topics have been left undiscussed during yesterday's near 15 hour press box shift.

Here are some of the highlights....

BB: You do a lot of voice over work when you are not working for the Bears, what are some of your other current projects?
Ed Kalegi: In the off season I work for the NJ Ironmen (Save by Meola!). Right now I am the voice of weather phone as well appearing in two movies coming out later this summer and next winter.
..............hours later..

BB: I am really looking forward to seeing the new Sex & the City Movie!
Ed Kalegi: Ya know, it is always weird for me to catch that show, because I actually used to be classmates with Kristin Davis. We both attended Rutgers, and were actually scene partners in some acting classes. By the end of the semester, our friendship was on the fence of dating - but then, things got weird. Wait- don't post that, my wife might read this!

............hours later...
BB: How many outs to go?
Ed Kalegi:....177

Check back for more updates from the press box throughout the weekend. We'll be here, stop by!
