| Slam Duncan, In-Arena Host |
| Slam Duncan’s hockey resume includes seven years with the Roanoke Express of the ECHL and another five seasons with the Predators. Slam recalls how he first landed his gig as In-Game Host, “Within the first month of moving to Nashville, I emailed the team to see if they might be in need of a back-up for their P.A. guy. I was told about the opening for a host, wore my LOUDEST Swiss hockey jersey to the audition, and still got the gig!” In addition to his job with the Preds, Slam works for the nationally syndicated show, After MidNite with Blair Garner and on The Big 98 – WSIX, while also running his own children’s charity. |
