Bob Curtis long will be remembered as the “Voice of the Vandals.” Curtis was a mainstay in the Idaho press box for 59 years as the announcer for Vandal athletic events.
Curtis called an amazing 540 consecutive football games at Idaho – a feat he accomplished despite undergoing hip-replacement surgery during the 2003 season. He pulled double duty through most of his broadcasting career as he also was court side for hundreds of men’s basketball games. Curtis also was recognized literally dozens of times as the Idaho Sportscaster of the Year.
