Announcer Drops a "Vote Pedro" Reference in U.S. Volleyball Match, Awkward Silence with Partner Ensues
By Jason Lisk
As Taylor Sander prepared to serve with the U.S. Men’s Volleyball team up 20-19 on Poland, the cameras zoomed in on his developing mustache. That prompted Kevin Barnett to drop a “Vote Pedro” reference on the broadcast.
That led to six seconds of confused silence from partner Paul Sunderland, before he said, “pardon me?” That reference to that “old” movie was of course to Napoleon Dynamite, which came out in 2004.
