25 Seasons of Ken: RiverDogs Give The Voice of The Joe a Sendoff to Remember – Holy City Sinner
After 25 seasons, thousands of introductions, countless memorable moments and a whole lot of laughs, the voice of the Joe received a celebration unlike any other.
The Charleston RiverDogs honored legendary public address announcer Ken Carrington on Friday as he continues to conclude his 25th and final season behind the microphone at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park.
For 25 seasons, Carrington’s voice was part of the soundtrack of summer at Joseph P. Riley, Jr. Park. He welcomed generations of fans, celebrated big moments, added his own unmistakable personality to countless promotions, and helped bring the ballpark to life.
On Friday, the RiverDogs gave the voice that helped define “The Joe” one final, unforgettable spotlight. With the RiverDogs beginning the playoffs at home on Thursday, September 10, there are still opportunities to catch Ken at the ballpark one more time.
Prior to first pitch, Carrington was honored in a special on-field ceremony that included a proclamation from the City of Charleston officially declaring Friday “Ken Carrington Day.”
A $427 flight suspension turned into something MUCH more positive. ❤️
Tennessee football player Carter was suspended for accepting a $427 flight to an NFL training facility. Instead of letting it get him down, he decided to turn that number into a way to help cancer patients.
This season, Carter is pledging $427 for every tackle, $500 for every sack, $1,000 for every interception or forced fumble, and $5,000 for every defensive TD. His teammate Clay is matching the $427 per tackle.
The cause is personal: Carter’s girlfriend, ICU nurse Mariah Bryant, is battling stage 2 breast cancer and undergoing chemotherapy.
The donations will help cancer patients with medical expenses through a nonprofit founded by Carter’s mom.
Turning a negative into a positive — and putting a smile on people’s faces. ❤️🏈
