82 years old (Born on September 02, 1942)
Happy Birthday, Merrill Reese! You've been the voice of Eagles football since 1977—longer than most fans have owned their lucky jerseys. Your iconic calls—from "Miracle at the Meadowlands" to finally shouting "The Philadelphia Eagles are Super Bowl Champions!" in 2018—have become as legendary as cheesesteaks and Rocky Balboa.Through decades of touchdowns, tackles, triumphs (and yes—even heartbreak), your enthusiasm never wavered. Fans still mute TVs just to hear you narrate every play-by-play moment on SportsRadio 94.1 WIP-FM with unmatched passion and humor. Here's wishing you another year filled with unforgettable moments—and hopefully fewer nail-biters!
