He was, but the question is not about his off-field stuff.

That distinction goes to Warren Spahn, whose number 21 was retired in 1965.

There has only been one hole in one on a par 4 in PGA history. Andrew Magee was the golfer who made the shot, but what was so unique about it?

The ball bounced off someone elses club on its way into the hole. The other player was in the way of sorts looking at his own shot he was going to make.

When he was first involved in the NHL, he became an instant hit with existing hockey fans. They took him off the air during NHL games in the mid 1970s. He made a come back in the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs when his broadcasts and retro apparel with his picture was sold.

Who is he?
