The video was meant to build excitement for the major event and detail part of the city's history.
"We the people are united by love of country, city, and this week, the PGA Championship," DiSandro said.
DiSandro is truly a staple of Philadelphia. He began working for the Eagles in 1999, and is set to enter his 28th season as a member of the team. DiSandro was also born in South Philadelphia and went to George Washington High School on the city's Northeast side.
Big Dom was recruited to Penn State as an offensive lineman, but never played, instead returning home right after college to join the Eagles, then as the assistant to the Chief Security Officer.
DiSandro's longtime ties to the city's people, culture and atmosphere made him an ideal choice for ESPN. The PGA Championship may be in the suburbs, but DiSandro's voice on the broadcast is still sure to spread some brotherly love.
