We’ve all heard Paul Allen (KFAN) call Minnesota Vikings games. And with the emergence of social media, we now get to watch him make some of those legendary calls that used to be for ears only. But, just in case you didn’t know, PA is a big Minnesota Timberwolves fan too.

He’s been to a game or two (probably more) during this playoff run already, but on Wednesday night, during game one of the Western Conference Finals, he was stuck watching from home like most of the Timberwolves fan base around the world.

And luckily, we got some video that was tweeted out by PA’s wife tonight that features our favorite NFL play-by-play voice watching game 1 of Wolves vs Mavs from his living room, fully equipped in purple Vikings shorts and what may or may not be a lime green Timberwolves golf style polo shirt shirt.

Paul Allen got a job at KFAN in 1995, three years before he became radio play-by-play voice of the Minnesota Vikings. But once he got that first opportunity, PA never looked back.

Over 25 years later, Paul Allen remains the radio voice of the purple and gold and one of the most iconic voices in sports broadcasting. When he’s dialed in, his KFAN radio show from 9 AM to Noon Monday through Friday is can’t miss too. Also, it’s definitely a lime green Wolves polo he is wearing.
