Bobby Kelton

He’s also made a niche for himself as a highly regarded sports humorist, having hosted home videos like “Greatest Sports Bloopers,” and “World’s Worst Avid Golfers.” Bobby’s been featured on shows such as NBC’s “Sportsworld” and ESPN’s “Up Close.” And he’s performed and emceed at many corporate sports events, including Sports Illustrated’s Super Bowl extravaganza, and the PGA Golf Awards.

With his topical humor and ability to create special material for any occasion, Bobby is a sought after performer on the corporate circuit. He’s entertained for GE Capital, Cigna, Million Dollar Round Table, America West Airlines, Kroger Foods, and Home Savings, among others. One of his career highlights was as emcee of a birthday roast for the legendary Bob Hope.
