Asmussen: Step right up for Illini P.A. job

Do strangers come up to you on the street and say “Wow, you really, sound like Gene Honda”?

Do you want to spend quality time with Loren Tate and Brian Barnhart?

Do you enjoy free popcorn and Sprite?

Well, Illinois has got a job for you.

The school is asking wannabe public-address announcers to submit clips to Brad Wurthman, an associate athletic director for marketing and fan development.

The best of the bunch will have a chance to work an event during the upcoming sports season.

The school has oodles of sports to mange.
