April 04--Stacey King had some competition for his signature calls during the Bulls' win over the Milwakuee Bucks on Sunday night.
Broadcast mics picked up the sound from a really loud Bulls fan. "Good foul, Dougie, good foul," the fan said after Doug McDermott fouled Greg Monroe with 49 seconds remaining in the first half. "Let's go, Bulls, let's go," she followed while Monroe was shooting a free throw.
As color commentator, King is known for his own lusty sound bites when one of the Bulls makes a dramatic play, but even he thought her cheering went overboard.
"OK this lady behind me is a true fan, I'm going to give her that, but she is quite annoying," King said. "I mean she has been yelling in my mic the whole night. She is a true Bulls fan, we love you ..." King says before he's interrupted by another "Let's go Bulls, let's go."
"... but we might as well give you a headset," King finished.
King may have received some criticism for his remark. He replied to a tweet, which wasn't viewable, "I'll get her ticket to the Bulls last game vs Philly can you guys make up to Chicago! Hate to see her upset."
