Ian Darke impresses as play-by-play man for first date (video)

Screen Shot 2014-04-01 at 1.10.49 PM

English broadcaster Ian Darke is well-regarded in soccer circles, and is taking his talents to the word of comedy in ESPN’s latest promotional video for the World Cup.

Darke is shown given the shot-for-shot on a first date between an awkward young man and an attractive young brunette.

I’ll leave you to decide what’s funnier: Darke’s pronunciation of the word “pasta” or the way he physically slides up to the table with the couple, headphones on dome. I choose the latter, as it seems more intentional.
