Wayne Cody

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wayne Cody (1937 - June 7, 2002) was a popular radio and television sportscaster who spent the bulk of his career in Seattle, Washington, broadcasting on KIRO.

Known locally as "The Mound of Sound" for both his rich voice and his huge girth, the rotund Cody vitalized the sports scene in Western Washington for more than 20 years. He was well-known for his on-camera antics and his entertaining style of broadcasting.

Cody's original ambition was to be an actor, but his success in this field was limited. He was cast in a pilot that was never picked up, and had a brief appearance on The Red Skelton Show. In 1992, he appeared as himself in the movie Singles.
