One of the most iconic voices associated with the University of Iowa is hanging up his microphone. On Tuesday, Iowa's Marching Band public address voice announcer Lou Crist announced he would retire following the Hawkeyes' season opener against UAlbany at Kinnick Stadium on Aug. 30. Crist, dubbed the "Golden Voice of the Hawkeye Marching Band," has been the voice for the marching band since 1981. The university shared his decision in a video on YouTube.
