Colts Announcer Drops F-Bomb on the Air as Game vs. Chargers Concludes

Sometimes fans can't wait for a game to end. Sunday's matchup between the San Diego Chargers and the Indianapolis Colts was one of those games for Bob Lamey.

Plot twist: Lamey is a Colts radio announcer.

The ending of the game was prolonged by timeouts and a penalty on an Indianapolis punt that resulted in an untimed down for San Diego. Once the Chargers' last-ditch effort failed and the Colts officially closed out a 26-22 victory, Lamey accidentally let an F-bomb slip when expressing his relief that the game had finally come to an end.

Via Bob Kravitz of WTHR, the 77-year-old Lameyโ€”who first called games for the Colts back in 1984โ€”has apologized for his mistake: "After the game, Matt Conti [the Colts assistant public relations director] told me about it, and I was shocked. Then I listened to it, and it was kind of garbledโ€”but yeah, I said it. The tape doesn't lie. I just wish I remember having said it."

Lamey plans to issue another apology on the air during a Colts show Monday night.
