The commentator Will Palaszczuk goes viral over hilarious goal narration, have a look at who is the Micky Mouse pundit in MLS
In an MLS match on Saturday at Bank of America Stadium that saw the home team let a two-goal lead slip away, Charlotte FC and FC Cincinnati drew 2-2, but the highlight of the evening was when Mickey Mouse appeared to take over the broadcast.
Who is Will Palaszczuk the Mickey Mouse commentator in MLS 2023
In Charlotte’s second goal, Karol Swiderski’s voice was changed into the recognisable Disney character by Will Palaszczuk. Even though his voice originally appeared to be cracking, he kept announcing the goal in an absurdly high pitch.
With two goals, 26-year-old Swiderski was the game’s top star. He celebrated the second goal by raising his palms to his ears. The celebration was most likely just a coincidence, yet it fits the goal’s narrator nicely.
Palaszczuk had the opportunity to clear his throat but instead mimicked Mickey Mouse’s voice. “He scores!” Palaszczuk yelled at a level that was nearly falsetto. The pundit’s voice had almost gone. He could have gone up an octave, but he choose to stay where he was. The end result was a funny commentary that uncannily sounded like the voice of Mickey Mouse, a popular cartoon character. Palaszczuk was able to continue as usual once his co-anchor stepped in to save him.
Football is privileged to have some of the greatest gantry voices in history. Football has given rise to some of the greatest commentators in history, including Brian Moore with his vivid dictations and Peter Drury’s bardic passion for the game.
But not every pundit is praised for their soothing voices or ability to wax poetic on the mic. Sometimes the person holding the microphone might make himself famous by screwing up. This is the ‘Mickey Mouse’ commentator’s tale on MLS.
