Untold Patriots Stories
Mark Santos, Son of Legendary Patriots Announcer, Gil Santos
“My Dad often said of his job as a broadcaster [that] he worked in the toy department of life.”
- Mark Santos
On a special Father’s Day edition of the Untold Patriots Stories podcast, we are pleased to be joined by Mark Santos. Mark is the son of legendary Patriots announcer and Patriots Hall of Famer, Gil Santos.
Mark touches on a number of topics including growing up around the Patriots franchise, how close were Gil & Gino outside of work, what were his and his father’s feelings about being given the red jacket by the Pats, what other HOFs is Gil in, and what does Mark think is the greatest travesty in all of sports.
Hear the story of what the Krafts did to keep Gil in the Pats family.
Mark also proposes that the Colts threw a game so the Pats - not only couldn’t win the AFC East - but would be eliminated from the playoffs. You’re going to want to hear this story.
You’ll also get to relive some of Gil’s famous calls through the eyes of his son.
Mark is a knowledgeable and interesting character who you’ll enjoy listening to.
Happy Father’s Day to all!
