Sam Lipisi
Sam is a voice over artist. That’s how he met Al. He was the announcer for Al’s long running series of commercials for Crispy’s thin crust pizza. Al came up with the line: “If God had invented pizza, he woulda called it Crispy’s.” Sam read the line. Into a microphone. And that made him a small fortune, which he parlayed into a condo in the Florida Keys.
Sam was divorced but recently got remarried to a woman 20 years younger named Shellie, who he met while jogging on the beach “Shellie, like a sea shell, I found her on the beach-get it?” Sam and Shellie have a four-year-old son named Sammy, making Sam a first-time Dad in his 60’s.
To stay in shape, Sam rides a bicycle around town to run his errands, which he says gives him “the calves of a much younger man.” His lifelong dream was to become the play-by-play announcer for a major league baseball team. That dream never came true, but he gets to live out a scaled-down version of his fantasy as the PA announcer for the Boulder Falls Boulders, a local minor league baseball team.
