Someone walking through the Virginia – Boston College announcers’ booth hilariously interrupted the broadcast

The CW Sports team is learning on the fly during unexpected interruptions.

The CW has been getting in on ACC football games this fall, and it looks like the CW Sports broadcasts are still a bit of a work-in-progress.

During the network’s live broadcast of Virginia – Boston College, broadcasters Tom Werme and James Bates got a surprise interruption as someone from their broadcast crew just walked right through one of their live shots from one end of the screen to the other.

The two folks in the booth handled the unexpected guest really well, so kudos to these two for navigating what’s sure to be one of the more awkward encounters in college football broadcasting this weekend.

Hey, we’ve all had moments where we’ve had to pivot in the middle of something to field a surprise, and The CW’s sports team is learning on the job how to make the best broadcasts happen.

Sometimes, that means some poor guy is going to walk right behind your broadcast booth setup as he’s trying to make it from one side to the other.

If you handle it like these two broadcasters did, you’ll be just fine.
