The countdown to the final Golic and Wingo has begun, with the final ESPN Radio morning show set to air on Friday.
And that means it’ll be the last time we hear Mike Golic on the Worldwide Leader radio airwaves, ending a decades-long run (although you can still see Golic appearing on ESPN after that when he goes back to working as a college football analyst).
The Golic and Wingo account has started up a #ThankYouGolic hashtag that the show and so many fans are using to pay tribute and share some classic Golic moments all week. Here’s a roundup:
Like a fine wine @espngolic has gotten better over time. #ThankYouGolic pic.twitter.com/zS5YlOPNDg

Mike, it’s been an absolute pleasure listening to and watching you all these years. @espngolic You were a great way to start the day, and it was special to see the way you and your son got to work together as well. You’re the best! #ThankYouGolic

I have enjoyed listening to @espngolic for over twenty years. I subscribed to @SIRIUSXM many years ago just to listen to Big Mike. When he signs off, I move on. #thankyouGolic

As Golic’s wife Christine noted on Monday, it’s going to be a very emotional week:
I’m going to be fine this week. I’m going to be fine this week. I’m going to be fine this week 🙃 https://t.co/BpGwgqp2jX
