Biography

[edit]

Early life and career

[edit]

Born to Jewish parents in New York City, he was named after his paternal grandfather, the German-American anarchist newspaper editor and orator Johann Most.[2] Johnny Most was one of the many successful graduates of DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. After distinguished Air Force service in World War II (see below), he began his basketball broadcasting career in the late 1940s as a protégé of New York Knickerbockers announcer (and 1936 Olympics track star) Marty Glickman. He was hired in 1953 by Boston Celtics owner Walter Brown and coach Red Auerbach to replace Curt Gowdy as the team's radio play-by-play man on the Celtics radio network. He also served as sports director for WCOP radio in Boston at that time.

In addition to his work with the Celtics, he served as host of a rudimentary Boston Red Sox baseball post-game show on WHDH-TV, sister station to WHDH radio which carried Celtics games. Sponsored by Wheaties and Blackstone cigars, this short scoreboard program consisted of Most reading the scores and rattling off pitching changes and home runs. It began in 1958 and ended when WHDH-TV lost its license just before the 1972 season and the telecasts were moved to WBZ-TV. Most also teamed with Marty Glickman to call New York Giants football in the early 1950s.

In the early 1970s, Most hosted an evening sports talk show on WORL radio which lasted from 5 to 7 PM. WBZ, owner of the Celtics' radio rights, allowed Most to appear only on the first hour of the program, which was broadcast live from a Boston nightspot, so as not to compete with WBZ's Calling All Sports broadcast.

World War II

[edit]

As an aerial gunner on a B-24 Liberator he flew 28 combat missions with the 15th Air Force in World War II, earning seven medals.

Shortly after VE Day, as his unit broke camp in central Italy, Johnny wandered up a nearby hillside to a graveyard filled with American flags, his final visit to fallen comrades before returning home to the Bronx. A prolific poet, he penned these lines:

I stood among the graves today and swept the scene with sight.
And the corps of men who lay beneath looked up to say good night.
The thunder still, the battle done, the fray has passed them by;
And as they rest forever more, they must be asking, 'Why?'

Commentating style

[edit]

Most always referred to his perch or radio booth at the Boston Garden (the Celtics' arena) as "high above courtside" at the opening of his broadcasts, and to his usual perch near the scorer's table on most Celtics road games as "directly at courtside".

Unlike his long-time contemporary Chick Hearn, who criticized his Los Angeles Lakers when he felt warranted, Most was an outspoken "homer" who rarely criticized the Celtics during game play but was not shy about criticizing other teams' players or fans (calling them "hysterical with joy" when cheering Celtics losses). For example, during the 1985 season, he nicknamed Laker star point guard Magic Johnson "Crybaby Johnson" after Johnson successfully challenged a referee's call. He called Magic this negative nickname throughout the remainder of the 1980s, announcing lines like "Cry with the no-look pass!" and "Crybaby with the rebound!"[3] He also nicknamed Washington Bullets players Rick Mahorn and Jeff Ruland as "McFilthy" and "McNasty", interchanging the two at his whim, and he also referred to Philadelphia 76ers players Steve Mix, Bobby Jones and Andrew Toney as "The Hatchet Brothers". Most was also very critical of the Detroit Pistons for their physical play during the late 1980s. He was particularly hard on Bill Laimbeer (whom he memorably called "Counterfeit Bill"), Dennis Rodman, Rick Mahorn, and Isiah Thomas, whom he referred to as Little Lord Fauntleroy.

Other work

[edit]

From 1963 to 1966, Most was the track announcer at the Norwood Arena Speedway, a NASCAR-sanctioned quarter mile oval. Among the winners of races during his tenure include NASCAR Hall of Fame member Glenn Roberts, Daytona 500 champion Pete Hamilton, and short track legends Bob Santos (whose grandson Bobby Santos III is a 21st-century Modified racer), and Ed Flemke Sr. (Modified racing family; son-in-law was a Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series race winner; his grandchildren own a car dealership in Fitchburg).[4]

In 1965, Most served as a color commentator for one Boston Bruins game when play-by-play announcer Fred Cusick was sick and color commentator Bob Wilson filled in on play-by-play.[4]

In the summer of 1978, Most called races at Plainfield Greyhound Track in Plainfield, Connecticut.[4]

Retirement, death and honors

[edit]

A heavy smoker for his entire adult life, Most was plagued with health problems beginning in 1983, when he suffered a stroke that left his right hand permanently paralyzed.[5] In 1989, he underwent triple-bypass surgery, and in January 1992 had to have both legs amputated above the knee due to circulation problems. In his later years he also suffered hearing problems and was often dependent on an oxygen mask to help him breathe. Most nonetheless kept up his two-pack-a-day cigarette habit, even after smoking was banned inside Boston Garden.[6]

On October 10, 1990, Most announced his retirement due to failing health. On December 3 of that year, Most was honored with permanent installation of his personal microphone at Boston Garden, silver-plated and encased in a Celtic-green frame and attached to the façade of the vantage point Most had always described as "high above courtside". On January 3, 1993, he died at 69 of a heart attack in Hyannis, Massachusetts in Cape Cod. He is buried in the Baker Street Jewish Cemeteries, West Roxbury, Massachusetts.

Shortly after his death, he was awarded the prestigious Curt Gowdy Media Award by the trustees of the Basketball Hall of Fame in Springfield, Massachusetts for his on-air contributions to basketball. On October 4, 2002, he was inducted into the media sector of the New England Basketball Hall of Fame at the University of Rhode Island.

Under Glickman's guidance, Most honed his skills in a highly competitive media landscape dominated by established voices, facing the challenge of securing consistent airtime amid limited opportunities for newcomers. His initial professional roles included announcing games and hosting pre- and post-game radio shows for major local teams such as the New York Yankees, (both baseball and football), and . These early assignments focused on minor events and supplementary coverage rather than lead play-by-play for high-profile contests, allowing Most to build experience through detailed game analysis and fan engagement segments. He navigated the era's technical limitations and audience demands by emphasizing vivid descriptions, gradually establishing his presence in New York's bustling scene. Most's signature raspy voice emerged during this period, largely attributed to his lifelong habit of smoking two packs of cigarettes a day, which he maintained from his wartime service onward. This gravelly became a distinctive asset in his broadcasts, setting him apart as he transitioned from supporting roles to more prominent sports coverage.

Boston Celtics announcer

Johnny Most was hired by Boston Celtics owner Walter Brown and coach in 1953 to serve as the team's radio play-by-play announcer, succeeding on WBZ radio. This marked the beginning of his 37-season tenure with the franchise, which lasted until his retirement in 1990. Broadcasting from a customary seat in an overhang off the balcony behind the Celtics' bench—often described as "high above courtside"—Most provided vivid accounts of home games at the iconic arena.

Commentating style

Voice and broadcasting approach

Johnny Most's voice was renowned for its distinctive gravelly, raspy quality, which developed over decades of chain-smoking and high-energy broadcasting. A lifelong smoker, Most attributed the transformation of his once-melodious tone into a urgent bark from the back of the to consuming an estimated 250,000 cigarettes, compounded by the need to project loudly over arena crowds and early radio equipment limitations. This vocal style, often accompanied by a hacking cough, became a hallmark of his delivery, enabling him to convey intense emotion through raw, unfiltered passion during live calls. Most embodied the "homer" broadcasting archetype, displaying unapologetic bias toward the Boston Celtics while rarely critiquing the team and instead passionately advocating for their success. He framed games in a "white-hats versus black-hats" narrative, portraying the Celtics as heroic protagonists and opponents as antagonists, which resonated deeply with fans and players alike. This prejudiced approach, far from neutral objectivity, was a deliberate choice that amplified his loyalty and irascibility, making him a beloved figure in sports radio. His broadcasting philosophy centered on vivid and excitement-building to immerse listeners in the drama of the game, treating each contest as a unique emotional saga rather than a detached report. By translating the visceral feelings of the action into compelling, high-stakes commentary, Most avoided impartiality in favor of engaging audiences on a personal level, particularly through his emotional investment in the Celtics' triumphs.
