Kevin Harlan is one of the best sports announcers working today, but when something strange happens in a game he’s calling, he manages to take his calls to the next level.

You may recall the fan who ran on the field during a Rams-49ers game or the cat that appeared in a Giants-Cowboys game and scored a touchdown.

Harlan was on top of his game during Super Bowl LV on Sunday night when a streaker ran on the field in the fourth quarter.

“Put up your pants, my man,” Harlan said at one point as he did some quick play-by-play. “Pull up those pants.”

This might bring a smile to Chiefs fans, who could use it after a tough result in the Super Bowl:

Harlan is the best.
