College basketball's most-recognizable personality Dick Vitale is beginning his 35th year on the air with ESPN. The eccentric, energetic former college basketball coach called his first game on December 5, 1979. 

ESPN is celebrating the milestone and had many of its personalities say a few words and give their best Vitale impersonation. The result was an entertaining video with particularly impressive jobs by Chris Fowler, Rece Davis, and Bruce Pearl.
